In cases like that there's a control character there usually as well as
possibly an actual space. You'd have to examine the text of the
BusinessAddressStreet property. You may find that you can't just blindly put
in the text from those properties but must do some text massaging to get
things the way you want them to look (or live with how they look now).

My dev group has developed and addin for Outlook 07 that enables 'Contact'
fields to be merged into MS Word 07 templates. The addin works fine
however the second line within the 'Business Address' field is including a
leading space when merging the field data into the Word template.
This is an example of how the fields are setup in the Template:
FullName
CompanyName
BusinessAddressStreet
BusinessAddressCity, BusinessAddressState BusinessAddressPostalCode
...and this is an example of how the data looks once the fields are merged
into the Word doc:
John Doe
John Does Landscaping
55 Main Street
Unit 4
Portsmouth, NH 03801
To me the logical cause to the leading space is due to there being two
'street' address lines. However the available fields within Outlook
Contact's does not include an BusinessAddressStreet1 and/or
BusinessAddressStreet2
Any thoughts on how to eliminate the leading space?
Thanks
