|
|
I have followed precisely (many, many times) the instructions in the OpenOffice help file to print labels from a database table. It works perfectly.... except that I have not been able to get more than one page of labels. Is this how it is supposed to work... selecting only enough database records to fill a single label sheet and doing that multiple times until all desired labels have been printed?

Great, thank you. But not particularly intuitive. And don't forget Print | Options | Right pages only.
Also can 'print' to a file but, as the file contains links to the database, it is not possible to send it to A N Other without the database, is it?
PS is there a way of previewing one's reply with BBCode activated? I'm not that familiar with BBCcode[/i] |

Thank you JohnV, I have BBCode on in my profile and when I read my and others messages BBCode is interpreted. Also as I write I can see Options BBCode is ON
But when I compose a message, like now, when I preview it BBCode is not interpreted. I don't think that is a problem with BBCode (thanks for your very useful reference) but lies somewhere else. |
