Hi Rhiannon,

You can build a multiple AND test this way:
{IF{={IF{MERGEFIELD 1}= "Y" 1 0}*{IF{MERGEFIELD 2} 2 1 0}*{IF{MERGEFIELD 3}= "text" 1 0}}= 1 "True Text" "False Text"}

Similarly, you can build a multiple OR test this way:
{IF{={IF{MERGEFIELD 1}= "Y" 1 0}+{IF{MERGEFIELD 2} 2 1 0}+{IF{MERGEFIELD 3}= "text" 1 0}} 0 "True Text" "False Text"}

I'm working in Word 2007. I have a list of mergefields (anywhere between 3
and 7 depending) that I would like to test the values of - if all of them
come back true, return one block of text, else return another block of text.
It works fine when I try and compare the values of two mergefields:

{IF { = AND ( { COMPARE {Mergefield 1} = "Y"}, {COMPARE {mergefield 2} 2
} ) } = 1 "true" "false" }

but as soon as I try and compare the values of three or more mergefields:

{IF { = AND ( { COMPARE {Mergefield 1} = "Y"}, {COMPARE {mergefield 2} 2
}, { COMPARE {mergefield 3" = "text" } ) } = 1 "true" "false" }

it breaks. Is there a way to expand beyond two comparisons, using either the
=AND or the =OR formulas? I'd rather not start nesting piles of these if I
can help it. Thanks muchly!!
