how do I get rid of the comma after the company name

When entering the address line in a mail merge I don't want the comma after
the company name, but can find no way of doing this other than deleting on
each letter.

Don't use the address block field. Use the individual fields and the
punctuation that you want.

Thanks for your prompt reply, I have used individual fields as you suggest
but it seems so time consuming.

Save the block of fields that you have inserted as an autotext entry, then
when you do a similar merge using the same data source, you can insert the
autotext entry to place the fields with an 'Address Block' that actually
works.
