I used Cntr. F9 to create brackets, and when I inserted the zip field, it showed a zero instead of «Zip» That's why I asked a follow-up question. If it doesn't do what you say it should, it's appropriate to ask. What I ended up with was {IF0<> 0 0} Everything in bold is what I typed. the zeros in Roman are the inserted fields. That seems to have worked, so once again, thank you. That said, I stand behind what I wrote.
