• 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.)
