Default Default to empty space when mailmerge field is blank

I need to retain the blank space (such as: " ") when a merge field
in the database is empty to maintain form
spacing. Presently, all the other data changes position depending on
whether the particular field is blank or not. The merge field is on one
line, so if the field is empty all other lines in the document are shifted
up.

How do I accomplish defaulting to a blank space when field contents are
empty in mailmerge?

I am using Word 2007
