Default Word not to insert a merge field if the text or value is 0

I am using merge filed from another source into a word document.
It will have a desxcription in the word letter then a value which is a merge
field. If the value is 0 I dont want the descriotion or the value to be
inserted into the word letter. Can this be done?

Yes, use and If..then..else field to check the value of mergefield that may
contain 0 and if that is the case, insert nothing, otherwise, insert the
other mergefield.
