Hello,

When doing a mail merge of an address the first line of merge fields are
'Title Forename Surname'. When 'Title' is blank it just prints a space and
then prints the Forename and Surname. Is there a way to avoid a blank space
and shuffle the Forename and Surname along but if the next record has a Title
for it to show it?

With thanks.

Use a conditional field to insert the title and the space
{IF {Mergefield Title} <> "" "{Mergefield Title} "}{Mergefield Forename}
