• adding a space in a merge field/macro

    Hi, I am not sure I am using the right terms but I hope I can explain
    this.

    I have created a button that creates a merge field (using directions
    from here
    https://apsona.com/blog/how-to-quickly-create-merge-fields-in-word/).

    I want the merge fields to have a space at the end because I have many
    merge fields in a row and they aren't always filled in with anything and
    I have figured out how the document will populate correctly if there is
    a space as part of each merge field. Here is what it looks like in the
    word doc.

    "Your generous gift of «Opportunity Amount »«Ack Letter Program
    »«Tribute Type »«Honoree Name »will «Ack Letter Program »help ....."

    you can see how there is a SPACE before each end caret (sp??). But when
    the merge happens the space is not there.

    How can i add a space within the merge field?

    Thank you!

    (I am using Word 2019 Student Version. I am on a Dell PC.)
