Hi

I'm trying to setup a datareport that produces mailing labels (3 columns of addresses). I've seen it in Word and Access. I could automate Word to do it, but right now prefer the DataReport if possible.

Any suggestions on creating multiple column reports in the datareport?

Thanks in advance

If you wanted you could create a data structure similiar to this
Table <Addresses>
Col1Address1 String
Col1Address2 String
Col1Address3 String
Col1Address4 String
Col2Address1 String
Col2Address2 String
Col2Address3 String
Col2Address4 String
Col3Address1 String
Col3Address2 String
Col3Address3 String
Col3Address4 String


May seem like a roundabout way of doing it, but a simple step would write the information in to the above table and then you can easily create the data report

thanks but I'm not following you. I know of data structures in visual basic. But how would those apply in setting up a datareport in Visual Basic. Are you talking about using a SQL staatement?

Thanks in advance.
