Using IF with MERGEFIELD
Hi there
I'm having problems trying to do the following: I have 4 fields, each with a 0 or 1, I want to be able to add these fields together and base the output on if the total is = 3. First I started with adding them together: { «MG_Q1»+«MG_Q2»+«MG_Q3»+«MG_Q4» } output: 0+1+1+1 I them made this in to a SUM: { =«MG_Q1»+«MG_Q2»+«MG_Q3»+«MG_Q4» } output: 3 So far so good This gives me the sum of the four fields fine. Now I need to have an output of YES or NO, depending on if the total =3, so I put this (based on examples I've seen online): { IF{ =«MG_Q1»+«MG_Q2»+«MG_Q3»+«MG_Q4» } } =3 "YES" "NO" } Using this, I don't get any output at all I've checked the data source and the fields are non-formatted etc, and obviously add up OK (as with the second step) but seems I have the IF clause incorrect. Any help would be very greatly appreciated.... I'm starting to get bumps on my head from banging it on the desk! Many thanks Stoo |
