Aaaaaand it took me less than 24 hours to drop the 3G. Thankfully, I bought a hardshell when I got the phone.

OK, the music stored on my hard drive is skipping. It was fine last time it played.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That probably means your computer and/or hard drive is too busy doing something else.

That makes sense. I keep thinking "Have to nudge the record--wait, CD--wait, Hard drive!"

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Quick question in Word.

I'm doing a mail merge with labels.

When I use the Word wizard I'm able to set up the main label doc, and then the record source. But when I run it, the merge stops after one page.

I vaguely remember that I need to set up up the main document so I don't populate a single page as Avery 5160, but instead set up up the first label with the data source codes and then it replicates out to the end of the data source.

But I disremember how to do that.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Does each label have the field thingie that says "next record"? If not you have to propagate the fields. (there is some sort of little icon in the mail merge toolbar)

If you click on the "abc" icon to view the labels, can you see everyone?

Thanks, Sophia.

I was able to figure it out once I got out of the freakin' Wizard and just went through mail merge toolbar.

The wizard sucks. Always use the toolbar.

Is there a way in Google Docs spreadsheets to have multiple Google Docs Forms feed into a single sheet, or even to multiple sheets within the same document?
