Inserting Text based of an Equation Result
Word 2003
I've created an equation: { = {Text11 } - {Text12} } Works beautifully. Now I want to insert a boilderplate text conditional on the value of that equation, so I've written: { IF { { = {Text11 } - {Text12} } =25 "blah" "goody" } } Meaning if the value of that equation is less than/equal to 25, insert the text "blah" otherwise insert the text "goody" Doesn't work at all; I get a blank line. Any tips? |

Any tips? If that's an exact transcription of the field, you have one pair of field braces too many. You also need a space between the = operator and the 25 value. It should look like this: { IF { = {Text11} - {Text12} } = 25 "blah" "goody" } -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
