Sabrina,

Although you can probably get this to wor, I would strongly reccomend
exporting your data to MS Word or your favorite word processing program
and using the excellent facilitiies available. You may have to pick up a
little knowledge but, in the long run you'll save much time and headaches.

FWIW,
Dennis Diskin

We are moving from a mainframe to a client-server environment for SAS and
I need help generating mailing labels using PC SAS.  Previously, I
generated them on the mainframe using SAS and printed on continuous
forms.  Now I need to move that procedure to the laser printer and I have
written a procedure using PROC FORMS.  The problem is that I can't get the
alignment to come out exactly right using PROC FORMS.  Most labels on the
sheet will line up properly within the form units, but the last few rows
overlap into another form unit.  Could anyone share with me how you have
generated labels for a laser printer?

Thanks!
