I am relatively new to the ACT! 2006 software. So far, I have created a database of contacts and I would now like to use it to print mailing labels. How do I select which fields I want to appear on the label each time. Also, once I have selected these fields, is there any way to set a "condition" so that any field that is empty is automatically not printed?

This from the Help file in Act!:
1. If necessary, perform a lookup to find the contacts for whom you want to create mailing labels or envelopes.
2. From the File menu, choose Print.The Print dialog box appears.
3. From the Printout Type drop-down list, choose either Labels or Envelopes, depending on what you want to create.
A list of available label or envelope templates appears on the left side of the dialog box. The label names match the names of the corresponding Avery labels.
4. Select a label or envelope template from the list on the left side of the dialog box and click OK.
The Run Label or Run Envelope dialog box appears.
Note
The Run Envelope dialog box does not have a Position tab.5. In the Create Report For group box in the General tab, specify whether to create labels or envelopes for the current contact, the current contact lookup, or all contacts.
6. (Optional) If you want to create a label or envelope based on the information in your My Record, turn off the Exclude My Record option.
7. In the Send Output To group box, select an output option for the labels or envelopes.The Printer option sends the labels or envelopes directly to the default printer.
The Preview option displays an on-screen preview of the labels or envelopes. After previewing them, you can choose to print the labels or envelopes from the Preview window.8. (Optional for labels only) Click the Position tab, and specify on which label to start printing using the Row and Column controls.
9. Click OK to create the labels or envelopeToday seems like a good day to chew through the restraints.
