Doug,

I really appreciate your help.  I must really be stupid, because I just
cannot get this to work.  It is really frustrating.

Let's try it this way -

Here is how my field construction looks before your suggested solution.  I
have typed it EXACTLY as I see it - there's only so much room on a label.

{ MERGEFIELD "FirstName" }{ IF {
MERGEFIELD FirstName }= "" """ """ ""
"" }{ MERGEFIELD "MI" }{ IF {
MERGEFIELD MI }= "" """ """ "" "" }{
MERGEFIELD "LastName" }   #{
MERGEFIELD "Member" }[SHIFT ENTER]
{ MERGEFIELD "Address1" }[SHIFT ENTER]
{ MERGEFIELD "Address2" }[SHIFT ENTER]
{ MERGEFIELD "City" }, { MERGEFIELD
"State" } {MERGEFIELD "ZIP" }

With that, here is how my printed (or previewed) label looks -

John Smith Jr.   #18
163 Walnut St.

Anytown, NY 00000-0000

Now, if I apply your suggested field construction, like this:

{ MERGEFIELD "FirstName" }{ IF {
MERGEFIELD FirstName }= "" """ """ ""
"" }{ MERGEFIELD "MI" }{ IF {
MERGEFIELD MI }= "" """ """ "" "" }{
MERGEFIELD "LastName" }   #{
MERGEFIELD "Member" }[SHIFT ENTER]
{ MERGEFIELD "Address1" }[SHIFT ENTER]
{ MERGEFIELD "Address2" }{ IF {
MERGEFIELD "Address 2" } <> "" "{
MERGEFIELD "Address 2" }[SHIFT ENTER]
{ MERGEFIELD "City" }" "{ MERGEFIELD
"City" }" }, { MERGEFIELD "State" } {
MERGEFIELD "ZIP" }

Then my printed (or previewed) label looks like this:

John Smith Jr.   #18
163 Walnut St.
MERGEFIELD
Anytown, NY 00000-0000

I take it I was to remove my previously inserted "City" field, because if I
don't, I get it twice.  What am i doing wrong???

Thanks,

Paul
