Adding a number to a numeric field is quite simple using the following field
construction
{ = 10 + { MERGEFIELD Number } }
Adding to dates is a bit more complex because you may exceed the number of
months in a year. As a result, you need the following field construction
{ IF { = 10 + { MERGEFIELD Date \@ "MM } } 13 "{ = 10 + { MERGEFIELD Date
\@ "MM" } }/{ MERGEFIELD Date \@ "dd" }/{ MERGEFIELD Date \@ "yyyy" }" "{ =
10 + { MERGEFIELD Date \@ "MM" } - 12 }/{ MERGEFIELD Date \@ "dd" }/{ = 1 +
{ MERGEFIELD Date \@ "yyyy" }}" }
You must use Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair of field delimiters { }.

Hello,
Is it technically possible to add a value to a merged data ?
Let's say add 10 months to a date retrieved from a merged data or a number
to another merge data.
If yes, how do I do this ?
Thanks
