How can I distribute objects evenly in Writer?

I’m trying to print some labels and I want to distribute them evenly in a row. I’ve looked it up, but the directions online say to select “modify,” which is not an option I see in version 6.1.4.2. Any suggestions?

Are the labels realized in frames?

Have you used the Labels Wizard?

Is use of a table an option for you?

Please provide more details.
