Default Word 2007 Address Block and Suppress Blank Lines

John,
You can change the line spacing by selecting the fields and using the Word
2007 Home/Paragraph option. The suppress blank lines should be an option of
the AddressBlock field but for some reason Word 2007 has taken a step
backward. Putting in the individual fields is not the same as using the
AddressBlock as it includes foreign country address reformatting and local
country supression. Also, suggesting using IF is not an option for an end
user and I have had problems with the MailMergeHelper macro.

My conclusion is that an end user cannot use Word 2007 to print labels
correctly. I am happy to be corrected as I have been trying to do the same
thing myself. In the end I printed the labels with blank lines.

I have several difficulties with Word 2007 and Merging
The Address Block when merged prints in 1.5 line spacing I can't make it
print single space.
I can't map the fields correctly because we use Prefix Fname LName Suffix
BusinessTitle Company Addr1 Addr2 City State Zip fields in my data. The
mapping choices don't accompdate this many fields (at least I can't see any
way to map and get the address block to display progerly)
I can't find anywhere/way to suppress blank fields (addr2) if I build my own
address block manually in the document. I did see one post about using
VisualBasic but I'm an enduser not a programmer.

Thanks
John
