How to Create LABELS in Microsoft Word Using Mail Merge | Use Data From Microsoft Excel

[@ChaseAHansen]

When inserting merge fields, you can fill in the first field, then click Update Labels, and it will populate all of the other cells so that you do not need to copy paste the rest.

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Thank you, Chase! You're 100% correct! Someone else mentioned that in the comments...I'll pin this one to the top so it's easy for people to find. Appreciate the tip!

Hi TM! 👋 Thanks for such a nice comment, and sorry for the slow response! If you're still needing help, probably the best thing to do is decrease the font size to fit all five lines.

The preview can sometimes do weird things. -Check that your "next record" merge field is properly placed at the top of each label. These should get inserted automatically with the mail merge wizard, but it almost sounds like they might be missing?

@@TinyTechnicalTutorials I also need help with lowering the address information in all the label fields to better center the addresses. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Hi again, MarcWNY! To lower the address information, you'll want to play with the "Before" setting in the paragraph settings (from the screenshots). Select the address line, then increase the "Before" number to something higher. That should push the address line down. Unfortunately, you'll have to do this one label at a time (if you select all labels, it will push all lines down on all labels, which I don't think you want).

Ooh, good point! 👍 No, they probably won't come over to Word with the zero if it wasn't in Excel. But if it's not too late, here's a quick video about how to get the leading zeros to show up in Excel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6SwdGmtZblgeas

2:07 for me after I press ok it doesn't show the outlines for the labels. How do I make them appear. you know what I mean?

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Hi Ferro! You probably need to turn on the "show/hide formatting" button. If you go to your Home tab, the button is about halfway over on the ribbon, in the "Paragraph" section (a carriage return/new line character). (It looks like the same as the single character shown in the document at 01:15 in the video). You can also use the shortcut of (Ctrl+*). Once you turn that on, it should show you the outline for the table. Hope this helps! :)

[@carlachirigos1576]

If I want the Font larger do I (1) edit the size of Font on the Excel Spreadsheet (2) edit the size font on the MS Word Template (globally or each individual entry)? I'm afraid to tinker with the merged file so I am thinking I need to create a new template. What do you recommend?

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Hi Carla! 😊 You can edit the font size in either the MS Word template (which will carry over to the merged file) or in the merged file itself. But you probably can't increase it too much or else the text will be too large for the labels. If you need something a lot larger, you'll probably want to find a new label template.

[@beckyleovich2313]

Thank you! Thank you! I go through this trouble every Christmas time when I have to make labels for work! I get so aggravated about it. I had been through at least six videos trying to find this help. Most were folks from across the pond. Then I didn't have the options they had on their dropdown list. Ugh. I was not happy and wasted a lot of time! Yours is the very first easy to follow and had all the same options I had on excel on my Macbook Pro. Yay! I was having issue with my options under "Insert Merge Fields". I don't know why they wouldn't show up but, they finally did and my list of 300+ labels are done. Thank you! One question: I thought that excel/word would automatically fill in the whole sheet of the requested fields. Is this no longer an option? I had to manually add them just like you did. Thankfully, we only have to do that on this one sheet and not all ten of them! Thanks again for a great help! Take care.

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Hi Becky! Your comment made my whole day--THANK YOU!!! I'm so glad you found it helpful! :) I think for labels, you've always had to manually fill in all the cells on the first page (for letters and envelopes, you only have to do a single address). I agree it's a bit tedious, but you're right...at least it's only one page! Hope everyone loves their Christmas cards (with labels)!!!

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Becky - In a comment from today, Dubbe Moulder Architects pointed out that at 4:45, to avoid entering all field names manually, you can click "Update Labels" on the ribbon.

Thanks for the video very good. I am doing this on a Mac. The only problem I have is I cannot specify a range from my address source file. I can only pull data from the entire spreadsheet or nothing. Any tips on what to enter into the dialog box when it asked for cell range? By default the field has "ENTIRE Wookbook" filled in.

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Hi Robert! Thanks for watching! 😊 I don't have a Mac myself so I've done a bit of Googling for what that dialog looks like. I'm finding very little! I found a video here: www.avery.com/help/article/word-for-mac-mail-merge-import-spreadsheet-or-apple-contacts. The first video on that page, at 02:29, on the ribbon, there are two text boxes just to the left of the red circle (with a "to" in-between them). Is that what you get in a dialog? This video doesn't talk about what to do there, but I'm guessing you could do something like "1" to "100" to only merge the first 100 records (or whatever you want to merge)? If that doesn't work, you might just have to create a spreadsheet with only the records you want, then merge the whole thing. Not sure if that helps?

Any tips on how to still go back to use or add more addresses to the labels left blank? They are left over on the last page?

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Hi Ashley! When I have extra labels, I try to re-use them the next time I do a mailing. But it's a little tricky as far as the printing goes (getting them to start printing at the correct spot on the correct side of the labels). I usually take a blank piece of paper and pencil in roughly where the labels are, then feed it through the printer to see if it prints in the right place. It always takes me multiple tries. :) I suppose you could also use the extra labels for arts-and-craft projects, handwriting on them? As far as the document itself and the merge, I don't know of an easy trick there. I usually just copy/paste/delete the cells I need/don't need so that they match up with the physical labels I have left. Not sure if any of that helps? Let me know what you come up with!

[@ggrossman001]

I have done this before a few years ago. How to I associate my Word label file with an updated Excel data set (same column names)?

Hi Georgette! You should be able to re-use your original Word doc. On the top ribbon, just go to Mailings-->Select Recipients-->Use an Existing List, and then browse to the updated Excel file. If all your column names are the same, you shouldn't need to insert them again in Word. Just click "Finish & Merge" in Word and everything should get pulled over from the updated Excel data set.

My document is only generating one page of Labels. How do I get it to print all the names from the excel spreadsheet? there is no way I can see to insert sheet. Seems like it should just merge all the names on Excel sheet into the word document labels.

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Hi Holly! 👋 It *should* merge all names, onto however many pages you need. If you're just previewing the data, it will only show one page, but if you "Finish & Merge," it should create multiple pages. You're sure you're not stuck in preview mode somehow?

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Thanks for the comment, Michael! Hmmm...the only thing I can think of is there might be an issue with the data itself in Excel? For example, if the "4th" originally came from Word, maybe it had the "th" in superscript, then it got copied into Excel, and the superscript didn't translate so it there's a weird character there now? Just a guess...I haven't personally come across this issue. Not sure what the "P" in "PO box" issue could possibly be. Maybe try adding a new row in Excel, manually type the address info, merge again and see if that solves it? And I'm equally clueless about the 4 sheets of labels. Let me know if you're able to solve things...I'm curious now!

Right now I'm having to manually go in and delete the line (after the merge) from the label, which takes up too much time. Any suggestions? Thank you, in advance!

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Hi blueroxy427! Thanks for the comment--so glad you enjoyed the video! :) Word used to have an easy way to suppress empty fields, but it seems that has gone away in more recent versions. But there are a couple options to accomplish what you need. 1) The easiest would be to use Find/Replace to remove the extra line in your final merged document (vs. doing each one manually). If you show paragraph marks (Home tab, in the Paragraph section, it's the paragraph marker button), you should see one paragraph marker on your blank line, and then one at the end of the line above it (I'm guessing after the last name?). So you basically need to search for any place where there are two paragraph markers together. Press Ctrl+H to bring up the Find/Replace dialogue. In "Find what," enter ^p^p (^p is the symbol for a paragraph marker, and you need to find two together). In "Replace with," enter ^p (a single paragraph marker). This should replace any extra lines. 2) The second option is to update the merge field itself, but it's harder to explain since I can't show paragraph marker symbols or screenshots here in KZbin comments. I found instructions here that might help (see the final post): answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/mail-merge-how-to-suppress-blank-lines/2039a43b-9c84-4423-abf2-3213043ae4b3. This works, but is a little harder to understand in my opinion. If you have troubles with these instructions, let me know and maybe I can post a short video for you.

[@chrisbrantley_]

@@TinyTechnicalTutorials Thank you! You're correct, #1 is the easiest by far. I did try option #2 and though I followed the instructions that both gentlemen shared, neither worked for me.
