Mail merge missing fields?

Version 6.2.4.2 for Windows.

When I create my label merge, some fields are missing. Here’s my sample label:

Sample Label

Here are my first seven rows of the spreadsheet (that’s properly tied in through a database and used as a source) for my labels:


And here are the merged labels:

How do I get the lines with empty labels to go ahead and print whether or not the labels are populated?

Thanks!

Note: I figured out the wrong association–I had “Next Record” fields in the wrong places.

… and your LibreOffice version is … ? (In recent version, this specific function was extended, so answwer depends; it’s always good to state what you work with).

and apparently associated with the wrong records

Please at least mark the places where you have wrong association. While omitted lines are easy to spot, trying to track the relations between your screenshotted DB and mailmerge results is a pain, and I just decided to abandon after the second item.

Also - it’s not easy to work with screenshots: the fields in them are not too handy to select and check their properties; the same about document properties as well. I suppose that attaching the mailmerge document (without the DB) would be safe enough (wrt not revealing sensitive info). If needed, sanitizing DB and providing it as well could be required.

I just edited my question. I figured out the wrong associations. I had “Next Record” fields in the wrong places. The only thing I’m dealing with now is printing lines with empty fields.

I’m running 6.2.4.2 for Windows.

In tdf#35798, we had introduced a possibility to auto-hide the paragraphs with empty records without any additional fields (since 6.1). This is controlled with a special compatibility option under OptionsLibreOffice WriterCompatibilityHide paragraphs of database fields (e.g., mail merge) with an empty value.

Mike, that fixed it! Thank you!

Mike’s comment fixed it!
