Default blank fields

Hi Alex,

You'll need to modify your data source to hold the initials as well as the
names. Then your mailmerge could use an IF test against the title to
determine whether to use the name or initials

Cheers

Hi

I have three fields - Title Forename and Surname.
If Title has data I need to mailmerge Title First Char of Forename and
Surname
If title is empty II need first Char of Forename and Surname
Can some kind person tell me the best or most correct syntax please

Thanks
A
