How can I create custom labels

[Jeanette]

Hi everyone, I do not know if this is possible. I am trying to create customized labels by creating a report. I need the report to have two equal columns with ten rows. I want each row to have specific titles that I type in and then fields from a query. I want the titles and a project field to print once for an address field that can have several different addresses. I hope this is not too confusing. Thanks in advance.

Using the french version, I'm not sure about the exact words, but it shall be easy to follow me:
In the menus, take the first one. (I think it is "Files")
Then, "Print setup" or someting like that.
Finaly, the third tab (Probably named "Columns")

Just a problem... I don't think you could put the titles like you said.
Another way could be using two sub reports, but that might be more complicated to filter the records to print even records on the left and odd's on the right.

You are right I cannot enter titles as I want using the Pagesetup method. I do not know how to use subreport. Can you explain how to create my labels using subreports. Thanks.

Sub reports are beyond my expertise.
Just to start you up, I'd say that you need to create two narrow reports that will become your columns in the main report.
In the main report, in the Tool bar, you'll see an icon that looks like a square with, within, lines in the left half and two squares in the right half. Use this icon to create the sub reports and connect them with the property Source to the other reports.
Above the sub reports, you'll be able to bring the titles you needed.
It's a little bit more complicated than this, but I'll let someone else complete it as I am not sure where I am going from there.
Hope it does help you!
