Hi,

I would like to use the "OR field code" (probably not using the correct
terminology) for 3 expression. It works fine for 2 but can't get it to work
with 3. I've used it in my previous job so I know it's possible, but can't
seem to find a sample "script" anywhere. Can anyone help?

This is what I have (which doesn't work):
{IF {= OR ({MERGEFIELD “LetterType”}=”A”, {MERGEFIELD “LeterType”}= “B”,
{MERGEFIELD “LeterType”}= “C”)} = 1 “TEXT 1” “TEXT2”}

What I want is to print TEXT 1 if LetterType = A or B or C.

Thanks in advance for your help.
Dom

Try

{ IF{ =({ IF{ Mergefield "LeterType" } = "A" 1 0 } + { IF{ Mergefield
"LeterType" } = "B" 1 0 } + { IF{ Mergefield "LeterType" } = "C" 1 0 })} = 1
"Text1" "Text2" }

and change the smart quotes to straight quotes.

Shouldn't that be LetterType ?
