Can anyone help with this problem, please?

I seem to have trouble merging when the first one or two mergefields are
blank, e.g.

Title Initial . Last_Name

If Title is blank, I want to enter Initial but without a blank space at
the beginning; if there is nothing in the Title or Initial fields, I want
just the last name - again without any blanks. It should look something
like
Title: Mr (or blank space)
Initial: A (or blank space)
Last_Name (two blank spaces) Famille Dupont

Not sure if I've explained that very well!
Thanks for your help.

If a field is empty or blank, it will be equal to "" in an
If...then....Else field construction.

Is there anything else that you need to know about it?

Can someone please point me in the direction of help understanding the
Null fields, e.g. "" " so that I can work out If..Else..statements,
etc - this does not appear to be covered in Help for Word 2003

TIA
