I created a database call list. Now I want to move the contact information
to a table to create mailing labels. How do I move the data from one place
to another without retyping all the information?

If you are using Word's mail merge wizard - it will ask you the data source
and you can just point it to the existing db.....nothing needs to be moved.

On the otherhand if you want to move a table from one db to another....just
open up the 2nd db and use the "Get External Data' import feature found up
in the "File" pulldown of the menu bar.....

You don't need to move it.

That's the beauty of a relational database: you store the data,
*once*, in a Table; you can then use that data in multiple Queries,
Forms (for onscreen use), and Reports (for printing - your mailing
labels would just be a Report based on your table).
