Description Rob WIlliams 2018-12-13 15:44:53 UTC
Description:
I have tried to figure out how to remove blank lines when printing address lables. It appears to be possible but is far to complicated and takes hours to understand the process. Please could you devise and implimemt a simpler way to do this

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create address list as a spreadsheet. Some addresses contain blank fields such as "address2" and "address3"
2.Create database linked to the spreadsheet
3.Create new labels document linking it to the new database.

Actual Results:
I saw on various internet searches about hidden paragraphs etc., but could not figure out how to print the address without the blank lines. The hidden paragraph and conditional text options do not seem to be available in the labels dialog box.

Expected Results:
Addresses without blank lines


Reproducible: Always
