Blank Lines Not Supressing in Merged Document
I turned on the feature to suppress blank lines in my
merged document if no data is there but they still appear. I do not get an error message and do not know how to fix it. Thanks for any help you can offer. |

Blank Lines Not Supressing in Merged Document
For the suppress blank line feature to work
a. the line must have at least one MERGEFIELD field on it, and nothing else that will result in any text, not even any spaces b. the result of the MERGEFIELD must be completely blank, i.e. not even contain any spaces Do not expect the feature to remove other empty lines - for example, if your address is a multiline address that is inserted using a dsingle merge field, blank lines within the address will probably not be suppressed. If you are using Word 2002 or 2003 (it doesn't sound like it) then this feature does not work when the fields are nested within fields such as IF fields. -- Peter Jamieson "Barbara" wrote in message ...
