Hi all
ages ago and using ClarisWorks 2.0, it was possible to chose an address in the data bank and it automatically appeared in a pre-configured letter template; any empty field remaining invisible and subsequent fields moving to left or up.

I spent hours to get Pages '09 work in the same way and am at a loss:
- Can it really be that empty Address Book fields appearing on a Pages document with the corresponding field name cannot be (automatically) removed?
- Is it really so that in order to send letters to private persons (home address) and to companies (work address) require two separate templates?...and mailings to persons and companies separate merges?
- letters with domestic and international receivers require separate configurations, as otherwise the words "Work Country" or "Home Country" will appear in letters to domestic receivers, when these fields are not filled-in?

Any help or advise on this subject is highly appreciated.
