I have created about 300 parcels, all labeled with a particular parcel label style. Now I want to change all of them to a different label style. I can do this with a right-click on the label itself, choose a label style in the resulting dialog box, but that only changes one label. There must be a way to change all of them at once...I don't want to have to do this routine task 300 times!

When I highlight one parcel in the Prospector tab, I get the expected Properties... ,where I can change the label style; however if I highlight more than one parcel name, the Properties... is not on the list of options.


Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

In the Prospector tab highlight all the parcels. Then right click on the column header. There you will get an option to edit all of them at once.
