In  answer to the question: How do you go about printing labels of call 
numbers that include a "1st",
"2nd", "3rd", etc.  with the number and the letters on the same line?

We have finessed a work around the default LC label formatting with a 
"dummy" checkin record with label type b . You can manually insert the call 
number with the formatting designated by spaces and this will override the 
LC formatting  i.e line breaks on alpha, periods and spaces. Then print as 
if you were printing from the check in box and it will come out properly 
formatted.

We went to this trouble because we haven't completly reclassed to LC and 
sometimes the LC formatting is a problem with the old call numbers.  We 
found that it fixes these wrinkles with LC Law numbers as well.
