Is it possible to setup FileMaker Pro somehow that it prints to a 6-sticker avery label sheet? I've checked the help, but with no luck. Can anyone, if not help, just point me in the right direction.

Thanks
 
You have to create a new layout. When you click new layout choose labels in the layout type then click next. At the next screen choose the avery stock number or manually enter in the label sheet measurements.
 

Thanks for your reply, but the FileMaker Templates that ship with FileMaker use some sort of SCRIPT to deal with multiple label printing. This is where I'm stuck. For example I have 18 out of 180 people who all live in Miami. Now I want to print Avery Labels for each one, but I need a script to do this. This is where I'm stuck.

Please don't hate the Layman, Thanks again for the previous reply.
 
Script your search first, then make your print script by going to the right layout and print 'records being browsed'.

Do everything first 'by hand' and make after that your script, exactly the steps you did manualy.

If you need more details....feel free
