Hi dmwesq,

The switch advice is taken straight from:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/wo...005186172.aspx
Although you'll see the switches expressed in capitals, the example shows usage with lower-case letters. You could try using capitals for the switch but that shouldn't make any difference.

If the \b & \f switches don't work on Macs, you'll need to use an IF field for the conditional paragraph breaks. For example:
«FirstName» «MI» «LastName» «Class» «Position»
«Organization»
«WorkAddress»{IF«WorkAddress2»<> "" "¶
«WorkAddress2»"}
«WorkCity», «WorkState» «WorkZip»
«WorkPhone» «Cell_Phone» «Email»



Note: The field brace pairs (i.e. '{ }') for the above example are all created in the document itself, via Ctrl-F9 (Cmd-F9 on a Mac); you can't simply type them or copy & paste them from this message. Nor is it practical to add them via any of the standard Word dialogues.
