Hi Paul, Thanks again for the help. I'm realizing (as I'm learning to insert the fields) that I don't think SKIPIF will work for me. I actually want the records that match both of my conditions to be present in the merged document so I can check our mailings. To skip the records where both conditions are met would give me the opposite of what I want I think. Am I wrong about this?

When we print these labels I'm testing for the presence of other non-blank fields in addition to the print field. This give us labels for business associates, clients, personal aquaintances, etc. I agree that the problem seems to be related to testing for blanks, as after the field that has been tested for "is blank" the software inserts an "or" operand, invalidating the argument.

Thanks again,
Bob Charest
