- Save an empty document. - Run MM wizard, at step 3 add an address list, and enable that the document shall contain an address block (attachment 136519 [details] can be used with US English UI without having to match fields). - Go to step 5 (so the address block is actually inserted), and click Finish. - Go to Insert -> Field -> More Fields..., locate mail merge fields, and add any of the fields. - On MM toolbar, click Edit Individual Documents. => The address block is empty. Observed using LO 6.1.0.1 / Windows 7.
