How can I set up a system to make it were the user can select which label on a sheet to print? For example: I constantly print VHS Face and Spine labels of which I only need one at a time. So I will need to be able to be able to print on label 9 of 15 on a sheet. Thanks.

Selective Label Printing

If I interpret your problem correctly, define a simple sequence field and set up some blank records. When the user says he/she wants to print label 9, your script collects 8 blank records and sets (via Replace) the sequence field to 1. Next get the record you want to print as well so you now have 9 records. Set the 'good' record's sequence field to 2. Sort on sequence field. Print.
Rather than keeping blank records, you would probably have more control by creating them as and when required.
