item seperator after last item when performing Mail merge for a group

[Sebastian Kieritz]

I have a
list of persons, and I want to have this list merged into my word document in a
way that each person should be placed on a separate line. Assuming my list
consists of the persons "Alice" and "Bob", my resulting
file could look like

"
A list of persons:
Alice
Bob
"

How would my word file have to look like to allow that? If my file looks like

"
A list of persons:
{MERGEFIELD BeginGroup:Persons}{MERGEFIELD FirstName}
{MERGEFIELD EndGroup:Persons}
"

the result will look like

"
A list of persons:
Alice
Bob
"

Notice the unwanted empty line at the end.

On the other hand, if my file looked like

"A list of persons: {MERGEFIELD BeginGroup:Persons}{MERGEFIELD FirstName},
{MERGEFIELD EndGroup:Persons}"

the result would be

"A list of persons: Alice, Bob, "

I don't want the "separator" to be applied after the last item as
well, just as ",".Join() would apply it to the last item.

(Sidenote: After I edited this post to add some information, all newlines
vanished (even though they were visible in the editor before saving), which
makes the post unreadable and much less comprehensible. Adding them all again
doesn't work, so I'm sorry that if something might be incomprehensible.)

This is how my last posting should look like, but I can't format it that way again.

Hi Sebastian,
