In the 2003 beta, I accomplished this by cutting the individual records from
separate pages and pasting them onto the first page (then deleting the
now-unneeded pages). Worked fine for me, but I must add that I only had 6
records when I tested this.

Couldn't you just get the Catalog Merge to put them all onto the same page?

Nope. It wouldn't work when I tried it. Only 1 record per page. But as I
said, I was able to fix it... crude, but it worked.

I've had success with about munging about with anything - and with up to
about 16 records per page.

Ummm... okay. I just used the Pub 2003 wizard and saw no options for
multiple records per page.
Maybe you can cobble together another tutorial...?

You don't need a wizard for this. If you aren't doing a mail merge, just
create a table with the same number of cells as you have labels. Make the
size of the table the same as the actual set of labels, i.e. 8 x 10 or
whatever since you wouldn't be printing on the scrap or you could just make
a text frame the size of a single label and copy and paste to fill up the
page. If you are doing a mail merge, this can be done in all versions of
Publisher by making the page size the same size as an individual label. Then
when printing, use the options to print multiple pages per sheet. Adjust the
spacing so there isn't any gaps and to eliminate the scrap area of the label
sheet. I would be a little more specific, but the wording of the options is
a little different for each version, but the implementation is the same. I
know you can figure this one out. This is one of those areas that I think
wizards do nothing but confuse people.

Well, I was doing a catalog merge from a select set of Access records, and
could only find Help that pointed to the wizard to get the job done (2003
beta). The docs were very poor in this regard. I would have loved to have
used a method that provided more control at the time; just couldn't find it.
The effort proved moot due to Publisher's formatting limitations, and it's
stalled right now. An outside firm may do the catalog in Quark.
