Mail Merge Using Contacts from Mail - Blank Lines
I am successfully merging addresses from a Contact List into a document in
Word. Outlook 03 to Word 03. The issue is that on some addresses I get a blank line eg: Mr Jones London House 13 London Road London SW1 I have checked the address format in the contacts list and it is exactly the same as those that work no problem, same no. of lines, same format. I am using the - Address Block - function in Mail Merge in Word to provide me with the address format. I would be happy to use individual field names but cannot find a way to easily open the file with the contact names/addresses from Mail. |

Mail Merge Using Contacts from Mail - Blank Lines
Use the individual fields that you require - see
http://www.gmayor.com/mailmerge_from_outlook.htm and http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm (which isn't only about labels). You may need a conditional field or two to suppress a blank line. eg {Mergefield Field1}{IF {Mergefield Field2} "" " {Mergefield Field2}"}{IF {Mergefield Field3} "" " {Mergefield Field3}"}etc Change the names of the fields as appropriate. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org ALJ1 wrote: I am successfully merging addresses from a Contact List into a document in Word.
