Can default format for recipient's name be changed?
Is there any way to reset the default recipient name format to the one that
is most frequently used? When creating a mail merge and inserting an address block, a default value for the recipient's name, consisting of the prefix, first name, last name, and suffix is highlighted (e.g., Mr. Joshua Randall Jr.). Selecting a different format is a simple process. However, if a different name format is selected, and then further changes are made to the mail merge (for example, match fields are inserted), the newly-selected name formatting is not retained, and the format is reset to the default formatting. |

Instead of using the AddressBlock, just insert the individual mergefields in
the configuration that you want them. Save it as an autotext if you want to reuse it. -- Hope this helps.
