Humour me. Have another go, but this time, move the NEXTIF field to the end rather than at the start of the line, like this: {MERGEFIELD "Name"} --- {MERGERFIELD "Address"}{nextif{MERGEFIELD "Address"} <> "*@*"} See if that works for you.

My test setup was with 2002. No matter what, I couldn't get the desired results. I know it seems odd but even with my "script" identical to Ray's I got the weird result. It's quite frustrating. Maybe someone else will try it and let us know what happens. /g From: Linda F. Johnson [mailto:linda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]=20 No need to "defend" yourself, Glenda...I wasn't attacking LOL Just mentioning that as many details as you can provide, the better your chances are of getting an accurate answer....maybe in this instance, that wasn't the case, but sometimes it is...and that's all I was saying. Can't wait to hear from Ray as to why his solution works for both him and me and not you...or maybe he doesn't know either LOL=20 ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word "unsubscribe" (without the quotes) in the subject line.
