I usually have a few if then...else conditions in my mail merge letters, but I have only had to choose between two things. However, I have a new letter where I would like to choose a different statement based on gift fund (three to be specific). If the gift fund is "x" I would like my letter to say North Carolina, if the gift fund is "y" the letter should say South Carolina, and if the gift fund is "z" the letter should say North and South Carolina. My question is will this if then... else statement work: {IF {MERGEFIELD Fund_ID_1} = 1257 "North Carolina." {IF {MERGEFIELD Fund_ID_1} = 1259 "South Carolina." "North and South Carolina."} } Thanks for your help! Sharln Chapman Manager of Records and Reports Lutheran Family Services in the Carolinas www.lfscarolinas.org

That should work if you only have 3 funds in your data file. You can also list just 3 statements, one after the other: {IF {MERGEFIELD Fund_ID_1} = 1257 "North Carolina"} {IF {MERGEFIELD Fund_ID_1} = 1259 "South Carolina"} {IF {MERGEFIELD Fund_ID_1} = 9999 "North and South Carolina"} You don't have to have a "then" when you're using ifs in Word. - Gail [i]--- Edited at 9/22/2003 11:12:44 AM by [Email Removed][/i]
