Address, Postcode and Bank solutions
LABEL TAB
The Label Tab (shortcut [Alt]+7) is used to display the address elements of the Bank record in the form of an address label - ready to print with a barcode if you wish.
Please note: As
Bank Finder does not include property or Delivery Point Suffix (DPS)
level data, the barcode contains the postcode only with a default
DPS of '9Z'.
You may customise or add details to the label itself before printing. The
box above the label address is used for adding an addressee name. You
can also drag the address and/or barcode to other Windows programs from this
Tab.
Examples of label layouts are provided - use the drop-down combo box to choose a suitable format. You may adjust these, then use the Save button to store your changes - or add your own.
To create a new label layout, simply type a new name in the combo box, and then click the Save button. Tuning the label print to your own printer and labels or envelopes may require a bit of trial-and-error and you may need to adjust the Bar Weight to suit your own printer. Typically, a 600 DPI Laser printer will require a Bar Weight of 9, whilst the Smart Label printer requires a bar weight of 3.
The Label Tab is also used to provide a quick
way of dragging addresses and barcodes to other Windows programs
- like Microsoft Word.
To drag a barcode or address, simply hold down a [Shift] key, then click
and hold down the LEFT mouse button on either the barcode or the address
box of the Label Tab. A 'dragging' mouse cursor will appear. Keep the mouse
button down whilst dragging onto the target program (like Word), then release
the mouse button to drop a copy of the barcode or address into that program.
Please note: The
barcode is a graphical image and you should ensure that your target
program is able to receive and use graphical data, before dragging
it there. The Royal Mail barcode is subject to a fairly strict specification
of size and layout, but has been tested with Microsoft Word and a suitable
printer. You should ensure that your target program and printer
is set up to print the barcode to this specification.
