Hi Roelof,

For this purpose, there's an easier, built-in solution. Just insert

Hello %ABtoFIRSTNAME="%TOFNAME".

This way, %ABtoFIRSTNAME will only be used if it's not empty, otherwise
%TOFNAME will be executed. IIRC, on the FAQ page, there's even a version
with 3 alternatives, which will be checked successively.
