Hello,

I am printing out envelopes and am trying to hide "address2" if the
entry does not have a sub-address.

In:

Tools -> Options -> Openoffice.org Base -> Databases 

I give the db a name database.

Next, I created a query that I want to use for my mail merge and name it:

names_and_addresses

I then created a blank document, then went to Insert -> Envelope and
setup the envelope with all the fields.

>From here, I can see all the data from my query set filling in the
envelope information in the format:

<first_name> <last_name>
<address1>
<address2>
<city>, <state> <zip>

Now, I'd like to hide <address2> if it's blank, so in:

Insert -> fields -> other -> functions

I select "Hidden Paragraph" and set the condition to:

database.names_and_addressses.address2 EQ ""

But, that does not work.  I always see a blank line.  I'm pretty sure
I followed the documentation properly.

Any help is greatly appreciated!  I will attach base and writer files shortly.

Thanks!
