Yes, obviously, but if this is a valid operator what is the syntax for using
it - either in general or with my example, as everything I have tried has
not worked...?? I tried the following and it does not work, i.e., does not
return "Test Positive" or "Test Negative" .

{ IF { = OR ({MERGEFIELD "County"}="Hillsborough", {MERGEFIELD
"County"}="Pinellas")} =1 "Test Positive" "Test Negative"}

I'm new to this stuff, but as far as I can tell the operator is simply:

Or

-smcash

I am trying to code a merge document that will insert an additional
two-page
document if the 'COUNTY' field is one of eight counties. The additional
document is the same for all eight counties. In WordPerfect this could be
done simply with the SWITCH/ENDSWITCH construct. I know there is no
equivalent in Word, but is there any easier way to do this than doing
eight
back-to-back IF statements with the same (redundant) two pages of text
inserted in each "then" part of the IF statement? Is there an OR operator
in
Word that might help accomplish this?
