Formula in word 2003
create a formula in a word form.
I have a situation where I ned to provide an auto response based on the number d in a bokmarked cell "Risk1" I have tried the following but it brings up an error {if { risk1 } ="4""YES"}{if {risk1}"4""10""Stop"}{if{risk1}"9""17""Report" } The basic requirement is to provide a different response based on a number value in form field bookmark "Risk1" which can range between 1-4, 5-9, 10-16 and 17-25 each of the above ranges need a differing response. Help please! -- Regards Martin D |

Hi Martin,
You can get the result that you want by creating nested IF fields as follows. {IF {risk1} 1 "{IF {risk1} 4 "YES" "{IF {risk1} 9 "Stop" "{IF {risk1} 17 "Report" "{IF {risk1} 25 "17-25 range" "Not in any range"}"}"}"}" ""} Do not type any of the curly brackets ({}). Create each pair by selecting what will be enclosed by them and pressing Ctrl+F9. Since you didn't give the text for the 17-25 range, I inserted the text "17-25 range", but you can replace it by your text. -- Hope this helps, Pesach Shelnitz My Web site: http://makeofficework.com "Martin D" wrote: create a formula in a word form.

Pesach,
Not sure that this covers everything, perhaps if I use laymans terms it may be clearer. If Risk1 is less than or equal to 4 then return YES If Risk1 is greater than 4 and less than 10 return STOP If Risk1 is greater than 9 and less than 17 return REPORT If Risk1 is greater than 17 return RANGE -- Regards Martin D "Pesach Shelnitz" wrote: Hi Martin, You can get the result that you want by creating nested IF fields as follows. {IF {risk1} 1 "{IF {risk1} 4 "YES" "{IF {risk1} 9 "Stop" "{IF {risk1} 17 "Report" "{IF {risk1} 25 "17-25 range" "Not in any range"}"}"}"}" ""} Do not type any of the curly brackets ({}).

Hi Martin,
In this case, a few changes are needed. {IF {Risk1} = 1 "{IF {Risk1} = 4 "YES" "{IF {Risk1} = 9 "STOP" "{IF {Risk1} = 17 "REPORT" "RANGE"}"}"}"} -- Hope this helps, Pesach Shelnitz My Web site: http://makeofficework.com "Martin D" wrote: Pesach, Not sure that this covers everything, perhaps if I use laymans terms it may be clearer.

Hi Martin,
Try: {IF{Risk1} 17 "RANGE" {IF{Risk1} 10 "REPORT" {IF{Risk1} 4 "STOP" "YES"}}} If 'Risk1' is a dropdown formfield's bookmark, you'll need to use: {IF{REF Risk1} 17 "RANGE" {IF{REF Risk1} 10 "REPORT" {IF{REF Risk1} 4 "STOP" "YES"}}} -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "Martin D" wrote in message ...

You can colour the words in the field as required but if you want the
background of the containing cell coloured you are going to need a macro. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "Martin D" wrote in message ... worked very well and a little simpler than the previous posting.
