Good Morning Robert,
Do you have any interest/demand in creating an export to mailing labels function within your eSearch widget?  For those of us who are planners, we are often creating public notices based on buffer results.  Your eSearch widget does a great job of selecting parcels using a buffer then creating a .csv that we can use to mail merge into mailing labels.  In fact, RockvilleGIS provided me with a great macro-enabled word document that streamlines the label creation process using a .csv (http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/31177-Mailing-Labels).  It seems like this could be a function that gets built into a widget, so I thought I would check with you.  Thanks.

Mike,

   I have considered this in the past but there are several issues. One is Flex is not a print output friendly language, two there are hundreds of label formats and types (I know I could support just the most popular ones, but...). I see this a something that would be nice to have but a lot of trouble for me as the developer.
