Merge Fields with conditional separator marks in between

[kmninbox]

Hello friends,

how do I have a separator mark such as ":", or "-" in between merge fields, only if the merge field contains a value

So:

CustomerName John, StoreName Acme would look like

John - Acme

But CustomerName Jane, with no store name would plainly look like

Jane

TIA

I think that this would have to be done as a separate calculation field like

Name & If(not IsEmpty(Storename); " - " & Storename; "")

and this calculation field put on the layout as a merge field

Or have the calculation field as simply

If(not IsEmpty(Storename); " - " & Storename; "")

and put that on the layout as the merge field instead of the storename merge field

Thank you very much that makes sense.
