Empty fields in database are causinf [if-field bla] to evaluate to true

Hello,

I recently imported a file which was exported by an excel spreadsheet in
tab delimited format into my products database, using a method provided
to me by predecessor. Basically, I open vi, s/""/|/g, s/"//g, s/|/"/g to
eliminate all the double quoting. I then copy it to products.asc and
make a query, forcing minivend to re-read it. Once I browse through my
new products using a flypage.html, I keep getting empty
<select></select> tags on some fields which are supposed to be empty. I
would like to have browsed the mailing list if I could, but apparently
it's down to keep the robots out. I hope this is an easy issue to solve,
I have to have this up very soon. Btw, I've only been using minivend for
2 days now. (Is it obvious? :)

Thanks in advance.
