You would use an IF field in response to a REF field. You would have your
answers coded to calculate on exit. While you may indeed have a template,
what you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form." Such forms
can be templates or documents.

follow the links at http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or

Chapman's series of articles. You may also want to look at

Hope this helps,

...
i'm creating word templates at my workplace.

i'm looking for a way to make sentences appear and disappear based on the
selections of the person who is filling the word template.

for example, there's a sentence which requires an answer "yes" or "no"
from
a drop down menu. if the user answers yes an another sentence will be
shown
on the next line. if he answers no the sentence wll not be shown and
neither
will be the line it would be if he chose yes.

what would be the best way to do that kind of trick?
