Hi NaBellFL,

You could achieve what you're after by placing the various mergefields on the same line with all except the first one embedded in IF
tests coded like:

{IF{MERGEFIELD matsup_cofile} "" "¶
{MERGEFIELD matsup_cofile}"}

where the '¶' is a proper paragraph mark or line-feed. That way, only the mergefields that have something in them will generate a
new line. No need for a macro.

Note: The field brace pairs (ie '{ }') for the above example are created via Ctrl-F9 - you can't simply type them or copy & paste
them from this message.

I create a form letter. The information of the letter is in a table.
Example:
{mergefield matter_name}
Co. File No. {mergefield matsup_cofile }
Etc.

This document is then merged. If there is no data in the cofile field of my
database I want to automoatically delete that table row from the merged
document.

I recorded a simple macro and created a toolbar button for it that the user
can use to delete the row after the merge but I wanted to find out if there
is a way to "nest" this macro in an If statement or something else???

I hope that clarifies what I am trying to do.

I am using Word 2003. I have created a document which includes a table.
In
each row I have placed my { mergefield }. When I merge the document, if
there is no data for a field then I need the table row to be deleted. Can
I
use an {If, then, else} statement to accomplish this?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
