Matching an exact text is straightforward - just use the whole text instead
of the single word example I gave before. If the text is the same apart from
capitalisation you can use the appropriate \* switches in your MERGEFIELD
field to make the text upper or lower case.

You can also use wildcards to a limited extent, e.g.

{ IF { MERGEFIELD myfield } = "*blank" "x" "y" } should give you "x" if
myfield contains your sample text. You can also do
{ IF { MERGEFIELD myfield } = "something*" "x" "y" } but you can't achieve a
"contains" using

{ IF { MERGEFIELD myfield } = "*something*" "x" "y" }

It doesn't work. Also, you may find that matching only works on relatively
short texts up to 128 characters. There's more about this in Word Help.

The field contains a statement "This field intentionally left blank". I
am merging many fields and this is just one of them. I don't want to
skip the record, I just want to print nothing if this is in the field.
