Default CONDITIONAL FORMATTING IF/THEN STATEMENTS - MAIL MERGE

I have several conditional statements that are if/then situations but
everytime I think I have them figured out and run my mail merge, I get an op
control error.

Here are the examples:

If a is null then enter b, if not null, enter c.

If a and b are not null, enter cannedtext, if null, enter nothing.

If x = N, then enter a checkmark

If x = N, then enter cannedtext

If x is null, then enter checkmark

HELP PLEASE!!!!

Make sure that you have a space either side of the =

e.g.

{ a = "" "b" "c"}

not

{ a="" "b" "c" }

Hope this helps.
