How do I find the code on a sheet of labels?

I bought some sheets of labels for printing from Ebay. They have NO code on them.

How do I find the right code for using labels in Word? They are A4 sheets with 18 labels on, 3 columns and 6 rows.

Sounds like an Avery J8161 or L7161.

Googled the question. Best of luck

Thank you, looks like the first one might work.

Another question - can you change the label sheet to landscape so the text goes down each label rather than across?

Yes, I have just tried it. If you type the text in the Word version of the label, then go to Format (at the top of the document) look down the list of options to Text Direction and click on it. You will be given some options, select the one you want. Try a test selection of words just to confirm ..lol

Hope this helps
