I am using the IF field and want to be able to use quotation marks in the
true statement area. When I try use quotation marks the code thinks I want
to end the true statement, and just cuts everything off. Any ideas on how to
get around this would be great

You can "escape" the quotation marks with a backslash, but if this isn't
entirely successful (sometimes it isn't), you can make do with two single
quotation marks.

You can use a pair of Quote fields e.g. {Quote 34} - see the relevant
section at http://www.gmayor.com/formatting_word_fields.htm
