have a mail merge doc for a DIRECTORY of 303 distinct residences (408 people total). What I want is if a filed is blank it is skipped as well as the Field Name. i.e., if there is no LName2 (aka spouse/roommate) the I want LName2, FName2 Cell2, Bday2 and Anniv all skipped. BUT altho I am a whiz at envelopes and letters, the use of skip, if…then…else, next, next record - are completely eluding me and I can't find for the life of me, a description of when each gets used. All I know is that my merge is returning an unable to merge error message.



AND THEN in addition I have pictures for about 1/3 of the residents, how do I add those to the merge doc. they are all stored in one folder as home# "LName". Is there a way to automate or just add at end of the process manually once the merge is successfully completed.
