Default Leaving a Blank Field Blank

We print lots of address labels, and recently our older PC died, and we lost our templates. We had backups, but they are from several years ago, and they don't work the same as what we just lost.

It's pretty basic. We do lots of address labels with most of what you would expect. We also print a special label that isn't an address label, but instead is for the user to sign, so it doesn't need many of the address fields. The problem is that the field for the zip code is blank in the data source for the signature row, but in Word, the position of the zip code is filling in a zero where the zip would be.



The quick solution would be to use two different Word files—one for the actual label, and the other for the signature label, but it's more convenient to have them together, as they had been before the crash. Since it worked before, there must be a simple solution, but I only use Word for this task, and don't know what the solution is.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
