mail merge blank fields

[Stewart Murphy]

Hi Can anyone tell me if the option to
PRINT BLANK FIELDS WHEN EMPTY is in office xp
Was in the old version
Regards

Use "Enter" at the end of the Line to supress the line if empty Use
"Shift+Enter" at the end of the line to always print the line

Just a Workaround I think, maybee someone has a better solution

Yes it is, e.g. re-enable the old MailMergeHelper via

Word Tools|Customize|Commands, select category All COmmands, locate
MailMergeHelper in the list of commands and drag it to a toolbar or menu.

But...Word XP does behave differently from Word 2000 and earlier - e.g.,
when fields are nested inside an { IF } filels, blank lines are not removed
in Word 2002 as they were in Wrod 2000.
