Default Insert compound word field

In my Excel mailmerge source there is a billing code. I want to translate
this code to test, ie A to annual. How do you insert a compound word field?

Use an If...then...Else... field construction

{ IF { MERGEFIELD code } = "A" "annual" "result if not A" }

There is a Word field pull down that will construct the above for you or it
can be done be entering from the keyboard using Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair
of field delimiters { }.

Hope this helps.
