Theoretically if($Config{'print_blank_fields'} || $Form{field})
should work. $Form should be TRUE unless it is '' or 0. Perhaps you could post a little more code? (Obviously don't break any NDA's, but it would help to see what is not working) -----Original Message----- From: Luinrandir Hernsen To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 4/29/02 5:43 PM Subject: need help This line is from a script if ($Config{'print_blank_fields'} || $Form{$field} ne '0') I need to change the last part (in bold) to read for both 0 and the empty set '' so the logic should read if ($Config{'print_blank_fields'} || $Form{$field} ne '0' or '' ) Or to say it another way I need the following two lines to be one. if ($Config{'print_blank_fields'} || $Form{$field} ne '0') if ($Config{'print_blank_fields'} || $Form{$field} ne '' ) I have tried if ($Config{'print_blank_fields'} || $Form{$field} ne '0,') if ($Config{'print_blank_fields'} || $Form{$field} ne '0' || $Form{$field} ne '' ) if ($Config{'print_blank_fields'} || $Form{$field} ne '0','') and it doen't work help? ideas?
