I have this code. I look at it but not sure its the best. I'm joining address lines, getting rid of blanks. Has anybody got any ideas to improve this? Thanks!

                If A2 <> "" Then A2 = ", " & A2
                If A3 <> "" Then A3 = ", " & A3
                If A4 <> "" Then A4 = ", " & A4
                If A5 <> "" Then A5 = ", " & A5
                If A6 <> "" Then A6 = ", " & A6
                If A7 <> "" Then A7 = ", " & A7
Dim Line1 As String = A2 & A3 & A4 & A5 & A6 & A7

What I have tried:

Nothing yet, short of ideas! Stringbuilder?

An idea: .net - String.Join method that ignores empty strings? - Stack Overflow[^]
