Hello,

I'm using autocrat to produce a paper program for an awards event. I need to print each student's name and the award they are receiving - each student is receiving one to four awards but never all of them. I need the merge to IGNORE blank lines (cells) in spreadsheet. Right now it inserts a line break. Please help!

Here is what my template looks like:

<<First>> <<Last>>

   <<SIH 1>>

<<SIH 2>>

<<Academic Excellence Certificate>>

<<AEC 2>>

<<Community Service Certificate>>

<<Community Youth Service Award>>

<<Federation Life Member>>

<<State Seal of Biliteracy Spanish>>

<<State Seal of Biliteracy French>>

<<Scholarship>>

It give me this:

Higga  Aosta

   






Federation Life Member


I want:

Higga  Aosta

Federation Life Member

You can add a new column and put in it the desired outcome.  You can use an arrayformula or copy the formula.

The CHAR(10) will go to the next line.  

Your formula would be something like.  If(A2="yes","A desc"&Char(10),"")&if(b2="yes","b desc"&char(10,"")&  etc.
