Then you need to append the values directly to the cBody string, like this:

var cBody = "Thank you for submitting your report.\n\n" +

"CONTENT:\n\n" +

"- Dispatch Release Sector 1\n";

if (this.getField("Sector2").valueAsString!="")

    cBody+="- Dispatch Release Sector 2: "+this.getField("Sector2").valueAsString+"\n";

if (this.getField("Sector3").valueAsString!="")

    cBody+="- Dispatch Release Sector 3: "+this.getField("Sector3").valueAsString+"\n";

if (this.getField("Sector4").valueAsString!="")

You can do it like this:

var s = "";

if (this.getField("Sector2").valueAsString!="") s+=this.getField("Sector2").valueAsString+"\n";

if (this.getField("Sector3").valueAsString!="") s+=this.getField("Sector3").valueAsString+"\n";

if (this.getField("Sector4").valueAsString!="") s+=this.getField("Sector4").valueAsString+"\n";

The variable s will hold your full text at the end.

                this.getField("Sector4").value + "\n";

   // Send the entire PDF as a file attachment on an e-mail

   this.mailDoc({bUI: true, cTo: cToAddr, cCc: cCCAddr,

                  cSubject: cSubLine, cMsg: cBody});

}

sometimes value of "Sector3" is empty, so how we delete or skip the empty line

and make it like

-sector2

-sector4
