Blank lines in fields

Guest

Hi everybody,
I'm 99% sure I haven't put this question in here before, if I have, I hope
nobody minds. :)

Anyway, I have an INCLUDETEXT field that inserts the text of a document into
another. In the second document, I want that text to be a different font and
double-spaced. I understand how to do that with MERGEFORMAT, but when I do
it, if there's a blank line in the original document, I don't want it to be
in the reformatted one. So, basically, I'd like to turn this:

SINGLE SPACE
aaaa (centered)
<blank line>
bbbbbb(first text in original document

into this:
DOUBLE SPACE
aaaaa(centered)

bbbbb(first line)
--No blank line in between aaaaa and bbbbb--

Thanks!!

I hadn't seen this when I posted a reply to one of your other posts. It
helps to keep connected messages in the same thread.

You can't remove extra lines from the source document that are empty
paragraphs so you need to ensure that the empty lines there are introduced
with paragraph spacing. Other than that you need a charformat switch as I
suggested in the other reply.
