additional text on barcode labels

Guest

I need to print a few thousand barcode labels and I want to include text
along the bottom from different fields and in smaller font.

Field 1 - "3 of 9" font at 28pt
Fields 2-6 underneath bar code as 8pt text

I can't seem to a find a way to do this in the Access label wizard. Any
ideas?

Johnny,
Develop the labels as far as you can with the wizard, then open the report in normal
Design mode and add those fields and fonts, and font sizes as needed.
If you were barcoding a PartNo you probably have something like Partno twice on the
label. One in Barcode font, and one in a readable font... like Arial.
I thinking (I don't use wizards) that the lalbel wizard asks what font you want, and
applies that to all fields on the label. In Design mode, you can specify individual fonts
for each field.

Thanks!

If I'd have clicked on the field in the report design view I would have
figured that out myself...
