I have coreldraw 11 and it came with photopain 11 and I need some help with Lables.
If you go on the Net or to a store you can get a lot of Lables by say Avery.
And then you need a program to open the Templeatte in so you can print on the Lables and they now how to Aline on the page.
And the same thing goes for CD VDV Lables.
Is there certain Lables I can get and have Coreldraw or photopaint open a Templeate for it?????
I don't have version 11, but I think the process is the same. In CorelDraw, go to Tools>Options. Look under Document>Labels, select Labels and you'll see a large drop down list where you can choose the label brand, size, etc. Check the Help for more info.

Patti is right -- I do have CorelDRAW 11 and that is exactly how to do it.
Good job, Patti!!
Lets make this a little easier. Make a screen print of your data input screen and post it on this thread. I am working from memory and cannot recall exactly what it looks like. It should be very similar to the one I posted above. If you hit the enter key in the last field, Corel should create a new record for you to enter data into. Perhaps I am wrong. Awaiting your image of the input screen.
My screen capture was not working right but thanks to you and everyone here I think it is going good and I think I understand a little bit more.
I have just made a Data Bass and put my Familys addresses in it and saved it and it worked.
Now just one thing and I don't think it realy matters but I just would like to understand it?
Wen you go into the Print Marge wizard the first screen is were you give every Field a Name I get this First Name Last Name address city state.
And this is what I did I typed a Name for the field and click AD Tab and it went into the window and I just keep ading names to the fields.
Now under were you type the names you want for the fileds there is a checkbox that says................
Incrimantal Data Fileds
I did not put a checkmarck in it.
Then I clicked next and entered data in the fileds I just Named and addded my contects to the rec. and clicked NEXT.
On the last screen wen I saved my Data Bass setting to my desktop there is that Checkbox again
but now it says
Save Incrimantale Dada.
Does this have to do with the first screen were I gave the dada fields there names and there was a chechbox there that sayed incrimantle dada fields???????????????????????
Do these just keep the rec. in order or what is it for I thought they are conected???
The Save Incremental Data box does have to do with the created Database, if you have an Incremental field. It is there even if you do not.. It has nothing to do with the Rec# (Corel creates this)
If you have an incremental field you have the choice to save the data in that field or not. Checking the box will save the data. Un-checking the box will save the field but not the data. I have had some difficulties having an incremental field and not saving the data when I try to open the database at a later date.
I you do not have an incremental field it does not matter what you do. Leaving it checked will not hurt anything.
Hint. In one of your post you show that you name a field L name. I would suggest you do not use spaces in a field name. Lname or L_name would be better. I have seen problems using space in field name when opening the Database at later date or importing it into a more sophisticated application.
Once again, I recommend you use a spread sheet application for creating a Print-Merge list.
yes they are all addresses for my contects.
So after I give the fields a name check the box Incramental Data Fields this will keep the rec in order right this is all it does???
So if I don't have this checked it wont mass up my rec right??
Just leave it checked. It will not affect anything if it is not needed and will save you a lot of griff if it is.
