Joey,
Odd. Replace { Symbol 034 } with { Quote 34 }. That is working here with
your example.

Thanks to both of you for your responses. Unfortunately, this doesn't
always work. Specifically, it's failing for me if the {symbo} field
is the first or last thing in the result text. Try this:
{ IF "a"="b" "{Symbol 034}text1{Symbol 034}" "{Symbol
034}text2{Symbol 034}" } Yields: text2
Now try this:
{ IF "a"="b" "my{Symbol 034}true{Symbol 034}text" "my{Symbol
034}false{Symbol 034}text" }
Yields: my"false"text
I can only speculate why Word is dropping the quotes in the first
example.
Is this a bug or is there some nuance of this feature that is eluding
me? If all else fails I can continue to use two single quotes.
Again, any help you can provide is greatly appreciated.

034 will give you straight quotes. If you want the curly ones,
you'll need to use 147 (left) and 148 (right). Alternatively, you
can use two single quotes.

Use a nested {Symbol 034} field in each place you want the quote
symbol
to appear. E.g.,
"....{Symbol 034}true{Symbol 034}..."
