Mail Merge in Office Word 2007 - Labels

[Jax]

I need to use at least 4 lines for the address, sometimes more. For instance
there may be Address 1, 2, 3 and sometimes I have a PO Box in which case
there is no need for Address 1 and 2, etc.
My label is big enough, but due to default line spacing in Word I cannot fit
all the Address lines on the label without losing the city and state and zip.

Also, how can I elminate Address 1 & 2 if I have a PO Box line.

For the first part, modify the line spacing in the paragraph format of the
labels

What is the name of the field that may contain the PO Box?

The name of the PO Box field is "PO Box"

For the first part, modify the line spacing in the paragraph format of the
labels

I need to insert another field for the POB. For instance, I don't need
country, so I can move everything down a bit to make room for the POB address
and I prefer to have a condition that says if there is a PO Box field greater
than or equal to 0, then address fields 1 & 2 do not apply. Those fields may
be filled in on the data base because, in our data base, we need to have the
physical address as well.

Do it the other way round ie insert the fields only when the condition is
met

{IF {Mergefield "PO Box"} >= 0 "{Mergefield Addr1}
{Mergefield Addr2}"}

"PO Box" will have to contain only a number
