Between the line with the persons name and the organisation name mail merge
is inserting a blank line into the address block, its 'hitting' return
twice...? Can soneone advise me how to prevent this?

cheers

Not using the AddressBlock field would be a start - then use conditional
fields to place the 'return' and the content of fields that may be empty
thus

{ IF{ Mergefield Fieldname} <> "" "
{Mergefield Fieldname} { IF{ Mergefield Fieldname2} <> "" "
{Mergefield Fieldname2} { IF{ Mergefield Fieldname3} <> "" "
{Mergefield Fieldname3}etc
