Default Removing orphan bullets

Hi

Using word 2007

After carrying out a mailmerge to a template with bullets next to some
fields there are a number of orphan bullets where fields are rightly
blank.

I need to delete the bullets either during the mailmerge which I
assume is not possible or more likely in tidying up the document
afterwards.

After the mailmerge is there a macro I can run that removes rows with
orphan bullets?

Thanks

Brian

You should be able to do it during the mail merge process if you use
If...then...Else fields constructions to check for the presence of data in
the mergefields.

Hope this helps.
