Reply To: CS4 Data Merge – commonly known issue with consecutive blank fields

I just noticed something. My template's merge fields are using normal returns on each line, but after doing a merge, for instance if there's blank cells in Address2 and Address3, that would be 2 blank cells. If I go into Normal view it shows 2 symbols (they look like colons) in the empty line, and they're after the paragraph mark, so it doesn't seem like I can select them. Would this have something to do with it?

I would supply a picture but I don't think this forum allows me to use attachments.
