That would be great. How do you format the label using VBA?

There are many differnet printers. Some are set-up for a single size. The
system would need to know what printer prints what label, what size the label
is and any specifics about that specific printer that needs to be set.

Why not keep the label formats in a table in the back-end to which each
front-end links.
