Default "0" from Excel Data

Hello

I'm having problems configuring my mergefields to report a blank as opposed
to a "0" from an empty MSExcel field. These are text fields, but I can't
figure out how to set up the IF..THEN test. Any help would be appreciated.


Thank you

Jeff

display of the field codes.
