Hi Daedalusfbo,
Here's how:
. Copy your «Last_Name» field and paste it into your document ahead of the «Title» field
. Select all three fields and press Ctrl-F9 to enclose them in a new field, thus:
{«Last_Name»«Title» «Last_Name»}
. Fill in around the new field braces thus, paying careful attention to the spacing:
{IF«Last_Name»= "" "Sir or Madam" "«Title» «Last_Name»"}
. Position the cursor anywhere in this field and press F9 to update it
. Run your mailmerge
Cheers
