It would help point out why it is not working if you had posted the field
construction that you had tried and also what "it's not working." means in
terms of the result that you do get.

To start with, the field delimiters { } must be entered using Ctrl+F9. They
cannot be entered using the keys in the row above the Enter Key (on a US
Keyboard)

{ IF { MERGEFIELD Number } "" "{ MERGEFIELD FieldName} { MERGEFIELD
AreaCode } { MERGEFIELD Number}" "" }

I'm doing a merge using an Access contact file. The user is allowed up to
7
telephone numbers, each with 3 fields: FieldName, AreaCode, Number.

I want to not merge any of the 3 fields if Number is blank. I tried
inserting an IF statement but it's not working.

How can I do this?
