Hi,
It all depends on what you want.
Ofcourse you could output the labels somehow and just print that. For example by generating HTML or PDF.
Another option is to connect to MySQL through ODBC and use the data as you would using an MSAccess database..
I don't think there a builtin functions that allow you to print directly from PHP, however there may be several ways to
accomplish this.
For example you could use COM to open Word with a template document, paste the label text and print it.

Hello and thanks for your help how do I use php and mysql to print mailing lables? I would like to be able to print mailing labels from an mySQL online database using php. Is it possible to do this as the same functionality as in an MSAccess offline database? Thanks, Ivan
