How to print labels from database?

Perhaps the wrong place to ask but...Friend has names and addresses in
Microsoft Works Database...how can she print off address labels from this
database?
Thanks,
John

If Works does not have an automated way to create labels, export the
table(s) with the labels' data to Excel. Link to the Excel worksheet(s) from
Access. This creates Access-like tables from the Excel worksheets. Create
what ever queries you need for the data on the labels. Use the Labels Wizard
under the reports tab to create a labels report based on the query.
