Thanks Patrick. I collected my e-mail before I read your message, so I didn't understand why you had sent me a 'blank' document. But when I put my cursor onto the document and clicked the outside border icon, an outline of a label appeared. Next I turned off the outside border highlighting (so I had a blank page again). Then in 'Word' I went to the [TOOLS][OPTIONS][VIEW] menu and ticked the 'text boundaries' option. Then I pulled up the template again and yes- the label boundaries are visible exactly as you said they would be. So that bit of the mystery is solved. Thanks. > >E-mail me a copy of the blank new document that you get when you tell it >to create a full page of the same label. > OK will do, but I think all that will achieve is us sending each other copies of the same thing. > >No messing around with columns blah blah blah... > Well how do you create a label with an icon on one half and text on the other half? If I use your sheet and try to insert a picture, the picture is inserted immediately above and as far to the left as possible of the label with the cursor inside it. I cannot move the picture inside the label afterwards either. Does your copy of 'Word97' behave differently?
