Yes. Lets say your dropdown fieldcode bookmark name is dropdown1 and
that the values are "show" and "hide". Check the box "calculate on exit" in the formfield dialog box. Insert a REF field embedded in an IF field {IF {Dropdown1}="Show""Show this text"""} |

Ok, I think I get it. If what I wanted to show was another couple of field
boxes I would just do this? {IF {Dropdown1}="Show" {Field1} {Field2}} "Greg" wrote: Yes. Lets say your dropdown fieldcode bookmark name is dropdown1 and that the values are "show" and "hide".
