Hi,
I am trying to go a step further. I have inserted a table to disble a
category of things AWARDSCH_DESC, AWARDGRNT_DESC, AWARDLOAN_DESC. Each one
takes up a cell in the table. With the field code, "{ IF "{ MERGEFIELD
AWARDSCH_DESC2 }" = "" "" "SCHOLARSHIPS
{ MERGEFIELD AWARDSCH_DESC2 }" }", How can I add to delete the cell if the
mergefield is null or blank?

It works here, except the carriage return itself always appears.
But you can also do it using the more complicated:
{ IF "{ MERGEFIELD AWARDSCH_DESC2 }" = "" "" "SCHOLARSHIPS
{ MERGEFIELD AWARDSCH_DESC2 }" }
where all three pairs of {} are the special field codes youcan insert using
ctrl-F9

Hi Peter,
I tried this and it does not work.

Put the SCHOLARSHIPS inside quotes, e.g.
{ MERGEFIELD AWARDSCH_DESC2 \b "SCHOLARSHIPS" }
then add a carriage return immediately before the second ", in the usual
way, so you have
{ MERGEFIELD AWARDSCH_DESC2 \b "SCHOLARSHIPS
" }

I have inserted the following field code{ MERGEFIELD AWARDSCH_DESC2 \b
SCHOLARSHIPS}. However I would like the MERGEFIELD TO APPEAR ON THE
NEXT
LINE. E..I
SCHOLARSHIPS
MERGEFIELD AWARDSCH_DESC2
I do not want Scholarships to show up uless there is something in the
MERGEFIELD AWARDSCH_DESC, so I used teh \b switch.
