If you want the firstname on one line and the nickname if it is not the same
as the firstname on the next line, use the following field construction

{ MERGEFIELD fName }{ IF { MERGEFIELD fName } = { MERGEFIELD nName } "" "¶
{ MERGEFIELD nName }" }

Where you press the Enter key (or Shift+Enter) where the ¶ appears.

Hello,

I need to merge some mailings based on if the first name is not the
same as nickname, print nickname else don't print anything and go to
the next field. The code I have is:

{IF {MERGEFIELD fName} {MERGEFIELD nName} {MERGEFIELD nName} ""}


What is happening is if the first name and nickname are the same a
blank line appears. How do I supress the blank line?
