I am sure i have seen it somewhere. I have a list of address details in a table. Each row is a different address: Name in Col A, st numbers and name in Col B, State in Col c, and ZIP/Post Code Col D. I have set up tiles for each address across the next page (to begin with). I will have to reformat this next page to get the grids onto a page efficiently for printing. Baby steps. How do i get each row of data (each address), into a label? The list of addresses is loooong so i want to be able to drag the labels across.

Say address table is on Sheet 1. and labels are on Sheet 2.

have found Choose which works if i want to enter each of the array elements manually ie choose(1, a2, b2, c2,d2,e2). it doesn't work entering "a2:e2" AND its limited to 256 elements.
@Alex Blakenburg @Peter_SSs gents, any ideas?

tried Index. it works for the first label and then the second does something weird.

hmm, it shows up like this actually:

the count says that there are 3 items in Row A when there are only two. could have something to do with the merged cells that the name will go into?

very strange. if i take the same formula down to a blank area and use it, i get the unsmudged answer, even when pasting into a merged cell. it seems that even though the cells are merged, there is a value in each of the underlying cells. that is, for MERGED C1:D1, the formula result should only appear in C1. BUT... both C1 and D1 contain the answer. I've not seen this before with excel. will post a separate question on it to see if anyone else has encountered this before.
