Default If field code = "*" then paragraph changes

{ IF "{ MERGEFIELD type }" = "lead" "Thank you for your interest." "" }
Look up IF field in help. The braces cannot be typed in. You have to use
Ctrl-F9 or Insert Field.

I am trying to make a mail merge letter that looks at a specified
mergefield
and returns specified text based on the field.

For example:

If field code is "lead" then test is "thank you for interest"
If field code is "prospect" then text is "thank you for your application"
If field code is "client" then text is "thank you for business"

Is something like this possible
