            Bug ID: 133337
           Summary: the result of a mail merge (with some empty fields)
                    differs depending on whether the output file is single
                    or individual
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.5.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: jnplg at outlook.com

Description:
When a mail merge output file is single (one document for all records in the
database) and some fields are empty, the writer text line is hidden for these
empty fields.

When a mail merge output file is individual (one document for each record in
the database) and some fields are empty, the writer text line is not hidden.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. download sample data 
2. open test-bug.ods : the second record has no values in fields "unit cost"
and "total cost" 
3. open bug-text.odt and output as file as a single document : in that
document, on the second page, there are no lines for the fields "unit cost" and
"total cost". 
4. open bug-text.odt and output as file as individual documents : in the second
document, there are lines for the fields "unit cost" and "total cost".

Actual Results:
When opening bug-text.odt and output as file as individual documents : in the
second document, there are lines for the fields "unit cost" and "total cost". 

Expected Results:
When opening bug-text.odt and output as file as individual documents, the
expected result should be the same as for the single document : no text line
for empty fields.


Reproducible: Always
