Default paragraph mark in labels

Is there any way of preventing word inserting a paragraph mark in a new
merged label document? I have to manually remove them before formatting my
label.

The paragraph mark is inserted directly above the end of cell mark, which in
effect adds an additional line to an address block

Don't use the addressblock field. It creates more problems than it solves -

I know what Mandy is talking about. For some reason when you merge labels in
Word you end up with two empty paragraph marks above the end-of-cell marker.
You can put text in these paragraphs, but I've never understood why they're
there.
