Peter,

Thanks for the advice. The code at present is as follows:

{ IF { MERGEFIELD Country } = "" { MERGEFIELD PostCode }
"{ MERGEFIELD
Country } { MERGEFIELD PostCode }" }

I understand what you are saying but, if, as you suggest, I put
{Mergefield Postcode} at the end, it will be OK if Potscode is blank
but if it is not, I will get Postcode twice.

I'm not sure how this solves the problem.

Best Regards
John

How about

Postcode }

The thing about blank line suppression is that it isn't any old blank line
that's suppressed - it's blank lines formed from MERGEFIELD fields, but
MERGEFIELD fields nested inside some other construct such as an IF field
don't count. So only by inserting a MERGEFIELD that you know to be blank can
you suppress the line.

More or less.

I have two Mergefields on the same line County and PostCode.
In some cases, like sending a letter to Australia, the County field is
blank but the PostCode field contains data. In an earlier post Doug
Robbins showed me how to use If-Then-Else coding to print, one or
other or both fields but I've hit another problem.

Normally, if a field is blank, the line does not print and the
remainder of the address closes up. However, in the line which
contains the code, if the both "County" and "Post Code" are blank, the
line remains, so I get a blank line between "Town" and "Country".
I've tried using a second "If" statement but it makes no difference.
Could someone please advise how I can get rid of the blank line.

Best Regards
