Attn: Word gurus (ie. voxwoman :-) by threadjacker 2005-10-04 17:46:21
Okay, I've read that it's possible to do conditional text in Word by using ASK/SET/IF.THEN.ELSE through mail merge....

I've not had to fiddle with fields at all... I don't know where to start. Any suggestions?

(Ideally, I would love to find a *simple* doc, maybe 4 lines with a conditional to show content in a couple of ways)

Thanks all.
