There were gaps in the address where it was just a street and town, and with seven lines it was too big for the window envelope and I couldn't get two items on one line. <br><br>Also the salutation was set to put Dear Sir/madam where there was no name, but it came up with dear, and nothing else unless I added it manually. Boss not impressed as he wanted to sign 635 mailmerged letters before leaving for Hong Kong today and I let him down badly..<br><br>Any help /comments most welcome!<br><br>Anna I just did this but end up with gaps – I matched to create the following: Name, Job Title, Company, Add 1, Add2, Town, City, Postcode, and it was a disaster.

Also the salutation was set to put Dear Sir/madam where there was no name, but it came up with dear, and nothing else unless I added it manually. Boss not impressed as he wanted to sign 635 mailmerged letters before leaving for Hong Kong today and I let him down badly..

Any help /comments most welcome!

I just have two coulumns with about 100 merge fields and would like to supress any blanks if the merge fields in one line are blank. The above solution has dialogue boxes on matching addresses popping up. I am not using addresses.
