MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / May 2008merge
In my letter I have Dear ... I want to insert field for "nickname" if not blank otherwise "first name". How do I do this? My data source has 2 separate columns. Do I need to merge them first? { IF { MERGEFIELD NickName } <> "" { MERGEFIELD NickName } { MERGEFIELD FirstName } } You must use Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair of field delimiters { } and you use Alt+F9 to toggle off their display.  SignatureHope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
