Question about OFFSET values

[Bob Basques]

All,

Ok, I got my addressing range labels too llok pretty good using four 
Layers with seperate LABELITEMS and OFFSETS.

Now I need to figure out a way, if possible, to scale the OFFSET values 
based on the overall length of the line.

Can I use a value, line length, and a percentage of line length to use 
for the Offset values of the labels.  Right now the labels are situated 
for the most part near the center of the line.  I would like to puch the 
labels out to the ends of the lines for example, or pull them in closer 
for longer and shorter line segments.

This is purely an exercise in readability right now, what I have seems 
to be working great for the customer.  Thanks for the pointers I got 
last week.
