Can't print "spouse Name" on a label - 8/25/2009 2:01:12 PM    crosty62   Posts: 1 Joined: 8/25/2009 Status: offline Why are not all Address fields selectable for printing. I'm trying to print "spouse Name" on a label but it is not selectable from the list. < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 10/10/2009 1:05:38 PM > Post #: 1

RE: Can't print "spouse Name" on a label - 8/25/2009 2:14:20 PM    Brandy redux Posts: 2376 Joined: 2/7/2007 Status: offline Hi crosty62, Unfortunately, only the Print Shop Development Team knows why all Address Fields are not selectable for a mail merge. Since the "spouse name" field has never been a selectable Address Merge Field in any version of Print Shop, the decision to not include that "spouse name" field as a selectable Address Merge Field was made MANY years ago. As a workaround for the missing "spouse name" Address Merge Field, creating a Custom Field has always worked quite well for me when I want to create a mail merge project. I will, for example, type the ENTIRE name that I want to use for that mail merge project into a field that is not yet used for anything else - such as the Organization field. Then, when I create the Mail Merge project, I will select the 'Organization' field for the first line of the address - INSTEAD OF the 'First Name' and 'Last Name' fields. The only drawback, of course, is that the entire name that I want to use for the mail merge project will have to be typed into the Organization field for every name in the Address Book that will be included in the mail merge project. < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 12/16/2010 1:17:22 AM > _____________________________ For More Help: Click on the FAQ link at the top of this page Then, click on the All FAQ's button on the next page To contact me by email, please send your message to pine_97@yahoo.com (in reply to crosty62) Post #: 2
