How do I get my mailing labels to move up/over a space when I del.

From word 2003 when i have a page of labels from a mail merge-- I want to
delete a name from the list and have the other names move to fill the space
so I do not waste labels with a blank space--- Thank you for any assistance!

Thanks, I see what you are saying, but, isn't there a format or key stroke to
move the data to the empty cell directly from the document you are working
from????? Happy holidays :)

The only practical way is to remerge.

Hi, there may be two solutions. What you may be able to do is to cut and
paste the information on the last label to the blank empty label within the
document. The other solution is to merge only selected records. Just before
to merge to a new document (labels), you have a dialog box opening up asking
you choose what records you want to merge.
If you have already done the mail merge, I believe the best solution is to
cut and paste the information on the last record to the empty blank label in
the middle.

Cutting and pasting a label to fill the gap would certainly fill the gap,
but you would lose the sort order and this would certainly be an isue with a
large list.

Providing that there is a sort order.
