Good word, Steve: verbose.

I think Steve's right...the easiest way to do it is with an IF statement for
each of them.  Not just easiest to write, but also easiest to follow. The if
statements won't slow up the program any noticeable amount...I'm not sure
why you would want to find a harder way to do it??  Just because it's the
'easy way' doesn't mean it's not also smart, good programming.

I can think of other ways to handle this, but they're all more complex and
verbose than putting each print in an IF statement.

Hi,

   I have to print the in the following format:

Address1
Address2
Address3
phone
county    - line by line

I would do something like this:

print address1 (0,1)
print address2 (+1,1)
print address3 (+1,1)
print phone (+1,1)
print county (+1,1)

My problem is sometimes address2, addr3,phone,county might be empty then 
there would be 4 lines of space which i don't want to have.

I don't want to put If statement for each of these to see if they are empty.

Is there any better way to do this?

Thanks. Any help is great.
