Is it possible to embed quote marks in If-Else-Then statements? Some sort
of switch or character that tells the merge to treat the quote mark ( " ) as
part of the text, rather than as part of the If command.

An example. The line:

{IF {Mergefield "Nicknames"} "" "The nickname is "Crash" Johnson" "There
is no nickname"} does not work, because the quotes around the word Crash are
treated as control characters in the If statement. Is there any way around
this?

Thanks
