I have labels already set up to print, but we have switched to a new label type. How can I change the label type without losing data on the existing labels. I'm trying to avoid having to re-type the labels all over again. I tried compare and merge and that doesn't work. It removes all the data when I choose "merge to current document," instead of merging it because the current labels are blank. Please help!

Convert the labels to a data source

new label format http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_labels_with_word_xp.htm
