Mergefields
How would I insert a mergefield that says if the "city" field is blank, then
"the world." I don't really have such a problem, but I'm just trying to get the hang of this situation. I was just flying through other mergefield practice moments, but I got some sort of block on this one. Thank you--again! |

Mergefields
If would look something like this:
{ if {mergefield City}= "" "the world" "{mergefield city}"} Note that {} are not braces you type, but are inserted by pressing Ctrl+F9. You can create most of this field using the Insert Word Field tool in the Mail Merge toolbar, but you'd need to add the {mergefield city} part between the last two quotes, manually. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP http://www.herbtyson.com Please respond in the newsgroups so everyone can follow along.
