it was used by inserting the field... (in the Insert menu) and then select
the IF field option...

Was the If field constructed using Ctrl+F9 to insert the field
delimiters?

i have an update on this
when putting this into my document
{ IF {MERGEFIELD PowerConnected } = 1 "Note: Power was connected at time
of inspection." "Note: Power was not connected at time of inspection."
\* MERGEFORMAT }
The value that gets printed when I do a mail merge is "PowerConnected"
the actual merge value (i have checked this) is 1.
Most likely the fields in the document need to be updated.
when and how do I update these fields... before or after the merge??
thanks

Hello all,
When I do a mail merge with VB, I am trying to update a certain value
on my word document...
It is using an IF field... But on the new merged document it just
appears blank with no value
{ IF{MERGEFIELD PowerConnected } = 1 "Note: Power was connected at time
of inspection." "Note: Power was not connected at time of
inspection." }
In the data I am passing PowerConnected does equal 1 ... is there
anything you could suggest....
thanks
Nathan
