You can use Microsoft Word to print the client names and addresses from RTG Bills on labels.
The first step, exporting the client information from RTG Bills, was described here. The second step, adding field names to the file, was described here.
Now we are ready to produce mailing labels.

Mailings > Select Recipients > Use an Existing ListIn the Select Data Source window, select the file you created earlier, either address.txt or mail.txt, and click Open. You will see a document with the code Next Record in each label location except the first one.
Mailings > Address BlockIn the Insert Address Block window, you should see a preview of a single address from your list. Click OK. The first label position now has the code AddressBlock.
Mailings > Update LabelsThis will add the AddressBlock code to all of the label positions on the page.
Mailings > Preview ResultsYou should now see your addresses in the proper position on the page. Check that each label fits in the available space.
Mailings > Finish & Merge > Print DocumentsOr, to make changes before printing, choose Edit Individual Documents instead of Print Documents. That opens a new document containing the addresses. If needed, you can make changes, such as reducing the font size to fit a long address.
