Avery Label 5666 Layout 1

[Auguy]

I've searched for an Avery 5666 layout and have not found one. I guess I can create my own in labels.dbf but was wondering if anyone had one or knew where I cound find one. I need it for VFP 6 & 9. Is there a new version of labels.dbf available?

I've found Avery 5266 which has the same dimensions. Does anyone know if 5266 has the same layout as 5666?

To answer one of your first questions, no there isn't a new labels.dbf and likely won't ever be.

To be honest, I gave up on labels from VFP when the world switched to laser labels because Word is *so* doggone good at mailmerge with labels and comes with templates for every known label configuration.

But another thing Word is good for is layouts. Since it comes with templates for almost every label ever made, generate a blank page of the label you're looking for. You'll get a one-page document with a table on it. Give that table a border and print the page. There's your layout!

Thanks Dan, After some more testing the 5266 layout seems to work just fine. I had to move the fields down a little bit to account for a colored band at the top of the labels. Thnaks for the Word tip, I will keep that in mind if I need another label format.
