There is no OR in the IF field, but there are other ways to achieve
the same effect, depending on exactly what you need.
{ IF "{ MERGEFIELD Company }" = "Company A" "X" "Y" }
{ IF "{ MERGEFIELD Company }" = "Company B" "X" "Y" }
is one way that may be enough in simple situations.
{ COMPARE "{ MERGEFIELD Company }" = "Company A" } returns 1 if
Company is "Company A", 0 otherwise, so you can use
{ IF { =or({ COMPARE "{ MERGEFIELD Company }" = "Company A" },{
COMPARE "{ MERGEFIELD Company }" = "Company B" }) } = 1 "X" "Y" }
or just use addition, e.g.
{ IF { ={ COMPARE "{ MERGEFIELD Company }" = "Company A" }+{ COMPARE
"{ MERGEFIELD Company }" = "Company B" } } 0 "X" "Y" }

I would like to use OR in an If...then...else... Word Field.
If {MERGEFIELD Company} = "Company A" OR {MERGEFIELD Company} =
"Company B"
OR {MERGEFIELD Company} = "Company C" then......
Is it possible, and if so, what is the correct syntax?
TIA
