Ajust LabelPrinting demo for multiple addresses on 1 sheet

1. offizieller Beitrag

    Hi,

    Is it possible to ajust the LabelPrinting demo for printing a list of addresses? I'm familiar with the MergeFields but when I call the LoadAddress procedure from the WPLabelForm multiple times it replaces the text on the first label on the sheet.
    What I want is to loop though a database of addresses and then add every next address to the next label on the sheet. So what I need is a way to ajust the LoadAddress procedure in a way that I can pass the row and column of the destination-label as parameters.
    Is this possible?

    You can adjust the label printing demo. All what is require that the editor which holds the address contains several pages. Each page must contain a different address. This file can be created in a process as outlines by demo MailM4.

    But it may be a good idea to find out how this demo actually prints the labels. Internally it uses the TWPSuperPrint componbent which is a nice (yet unknown by most) addon to print booklets and multiple sheets on one piece of paper.

    Hi Julian,

    I did exactly as you told but still something is wrong. I succesfully created a file with a different address on each page with the demo MailM4. Then when I load this file in the editor of the LabelPrinting Demo and I go to 'Print Label' I see under the address tab 2 labels, the first holding 2 addresses and the first line of the third address, the second label contains the second line of the third address and the rest is empty.
    I created the file with de demo M4 I only put a query on the form instead of the table and of course ajusted the mailmergefields to the ones needed.
    Any idea what the problem can be? I can send you screenshots if you want them..
    btw: I've tried it also with the standard-output of the demo M4 with the biolife database but the same problem occurs.
