Hi Steve,

For the first issue, you could fix the starting position for the second field via a tab & tab-stop combo. Of course, this could
result in a lot of wasted space between the two mergefields, and is liable to exacerbate the line-wrapping effect.

As for the second problem you could probably deal with that by inserting manual line breaks between each of the mergefields and not
relying on Word's blank-line suppression. Alternatively, you could put each mergefield into a cell in a three-row table whose cells
have a fixed row height of the appropriate dimensions.

I have a situation where I am doing a mailmerge for Invoices where the Bill
To address is in the upper left and the Invoice information in is the upper
right (Invoice Number, Invoice Date & Invoice Amount). There are 2 issues
that I have:

With 2 mergefields on the same line I am seeing that the starting point
for the second mergefield jumps when scrolling through the preview.
Sometimes it even wraps to the next line. Is there a way to make the
mergefield that starts on the right to have a fixed position?

Also the three mergefield on the right side (Invoice Number, Invoice Date
& Invoice Amount) I have double spaced. If a line on the address is
suppressed because it doesn't have an ADD2 field it causes a single space.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
