Hello

I am inserting fields into a document and I am using Title, first name
and last name. When I enter the fields I want a space between them
and the only way I can find to do this is to add the field, close the
box and then reopen it and add the next field.

Is there a quicker way?

Thank you
 
Isn't this a real pain! I just add all the items one after another - Title,
Initials, Surname, Address1 etc - and then close the box. After closing you
can click between the chevrons <> and add spaces. However, iyou can use the
Address Block and match the items with Microsoft's titles. I don't really
find this any quicker, however. Does this help?
 
Thank you, I never thought about doing it that way, I was so stuck
doing it the other way.
 
If you want to do it the "old" way, you can add the Insert Merge Field menu
to your Mail Merge toolbar. See
