MORE INFORMATION
================
 
The number of labels that will print depends on the number of records
shown in list view. For example, if only one record appears in list
view, only one label will print. If you want just enough records to
fill one page, create blank records in the database until you have enough
to fill one page. To enter blank records, press the SPACEBAR key in each
record.
