is there a way to print more than one label per record? I would like to be able to print package labels from FMP, but sometimes I need 50 labels per record, other times only 6 or 10. the number always changes so i can't make a layout for each quantity.

How 'bout making a related file which contains only an ID field that relates it back to the main file. Create the label layout in this file using related fields from the main file, and then create one record per label in this new file. For example if you want to print 25 labels for record ID 1, and 6 labels for record ID 2 in the main file, create 25 records in the second file with ID = 1, and 6 records with ID = 2. Then print from this second file. You can make a script to automate the creation of these multiple records.
