Newbie Question on Suppressing Lines

edited July 2002 in General
If a field is blank, I'd like to suppress its line print. An example
would be the second line of an address

With line two:

Frammis Company
123 HiLo St.
Dept 12
Flapdoodle, TN

Without line two of address;

Wormis Co
321 LoHi Ave
Banjo, TN (no blank line when address line 2 not present)

Help is greatly appreciated

    I use a memo field for the address and auto size it. A good in-memory
    dataset could help or using a JIT pipeline. Or you culd place each field on
    a region, shift each region relative the one one above it and then set their
    visiblity conditioned on the field having contents.
