Conditional Formatting a Mail Merge Label
Hi I need to create labels for some storage shelves and thought mail merging
excel and word would be a good idea. I need to create labels using different coloured font depending on the type of item. I can use the following code to change the formatting {If{MERGEFIELD €śCategory€ť} = €śCategory1€ť {MERGEFIELD €śItem Description€ť \*CharFormat} {If{MERGEFIELD €śCategory€ť} = €śCategory2€ť {MERGEFIELD €śItem Description€ť \*CharFormat} {MERGEFIELD €śItem Description€ť \*CharFormat}}} However my problem is that I have about 10 different colour options thus requiring a number of if statement, however once I go past a certain number of lines the font disappears of the edge of the label and I can't see what I am typing. Are there any dialog boxes within word I am unaware of? Or do I simply temporarily expand the label box to see all the text and then shrink once I have finished typing the statement? Thanks |
