Avery -start printing at label no. X on used sheet

[Leb i Sol]

Hello People!

I was wondering if there is a way to script/set printing of lables by user's choice where the 1st record should be printed?

In other words, if I am left with a full sheet of lables and only 3 labels have been used of it...how to 'start printing' from label 4.

My initial thought was to create a eg. 3 blank records but it iseems like making blank records and then deleting them after print is a waste of resource...

Anyone has a workarround?

Many thanx!

Hey man,

Take a look at this thread. The solution I came up with is what I'm using now, though see Ugo's comments regarding the overkill on the file locking. He's right -- I was making it harder than it has to be.

Anyway, this works well and is what I'm using now. Good luck. Post 91239 is the one with the download you'll need.

By the way, this will get a lot easier in FM7 when I redesign it with button parameters.

Great Stuff Dan!

Saved me from re-inventing the wheel and I guess that whole Import-delete is not all that hated by FM developers....

Again, much obliged!
