how do you save a label mailmerge to avoid the excess steps

[alfiesty]

I am trying to set up a very new user to print monthly mailing labels from
an access database. The dataset is constantly updated. She has been going
through all 5 steps every time. She gets very confused every time. Is there a
way to automate the process?

Access has a perfectly good Report Label Wizard. Why not use that?

Otherwise, just save the mailmerge main document once it has been set up
with the data source attached and when a set of labels is required, simply
open the mailmerge main document and use the mailmerge toolbar to execute
the merge.

To turn on the mailmerge tool bar, select Toolbars from the View menu and
then click on the mailmerge item.
