What I would do in this case is something like:
Style Home_Address
LatexName homeaddress
LatexType command
Preamble
\newcommand{\homeaddress}[1]{\def\thehomeaddress{##1}}
\homeaddress{Not Given!}
EndPreamble
End
Style Work_Address
LatexName workaddress
LatexType command
Preamble
\newcommand{\workaddress}[1]{\def\theworkaddress{##1}}
\workaddress{Not Given!}
EndPreamble
End
Style Show_Addresses
LatexName addresses
LatexType command
LatexParam "{\thehomeaddress}{\theworkaddress}"
KeepEmpty 1
End
To use this, you should have the three styles given in a row, with no
text in the last one. Another solution to avoid the last paragraph, is
to setup the macro to work like the \title commands of LaTeX. In this
case, by adding "Intitle 1" to the layouts, a "\maketitle" will be
generated after those layouts automatically.
Feel free to ask if I am not clear enough.
