Hard Return in IF field
I have an IF field and I want the output to include a hard return.
Example 1: If field ABC = "Apples" then I want it to print Granny Smith which would be: { IF { ABC } = "Apples" "Granny Smith" } Easy enough. Example 2: But if field DEF = "Ducks" then I want it to print Ducks Mallards How do I get the hard return between "Ducks" and "Mallards"? |

Put the hard return in your field construction {IF {DEF} = "Ducks""Ducks* Mallards"} *representes a tap on the enter key to insert a paragraph hard return. -- Greg Maxey/Word MVP A Peer in Peer to Peer Support Ray_Johnson wrote: I have an IF field and I want the output to include a hard return.
