If mergefield and printing...
We have a statement which reads: {IF {MERGEFIELD Field} "" {INCLUDETEXT
"filename"}" ""}. The letter meges fine, but if we do a print preview or merge to printer, the text block disappears. If we merge to document and then print, it works fine. Does anyone know why the text block is disappearing and/or a fix? |

The fix is what you are already doing - merge to a new document and print
that document. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Dave wrote: We have a statement which reads: {IF {MERGEFIELD Field} "" {INCLUDETEXT "filename"}" ""}.

Is there any plan to fix it so one can just merge to the printer?

Not that I know of. It occurs because of the way Word handles nested fields
during a merge. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Dave wrote: Is there any plan to fix it so one can just merge to the printer?
