Using WORD and a template I built, I have an extra line when there is no data
for Address_Line_2. The code is as follows:

{IF {mergefield Address_Line_2}<>"" "{mergefield Address_Line_2}" "")

The help information does not provide anything that I could find on this.

You need to put this conditional field on the end of the previous line (not
on its own line) and add the line feed in the code thus:
{IF {mergefield Address_Line_2}<>"" "
{mergefield Address_Line_2}")
