I'm just numbering paragraphs with {listNum} in word xp
Here is what I have.
{listnum} This is Paragraph Number {MergeField "Something"} one and
will always show, not that that matters.
{if {mergefield "something"} = True "{listnum} This is paragraph
Number two and will only show if the IF is True." ""}
{listnum} This is paragraph number three and it may have a field or
two also.
What I should get IF something=True
1. This is Paragraph Number {MergeField "Something"} one and will
always show, not that that matters.
2. This is paragraph Number two and will only show if something is
True.
3. This is paragraph number three and it may have a field or two also.
What I should get IF something=False
1. This is Paragraph Number {MergeField "Something"} one and will
always show, not that that matters.
2. This is paragraph number three and it may have a field or two also.
What I get IF something=True
1. This is Paragraph Number {MergeField "Something"} one and will
always show, not that that matters.
2. This is paragraph Number two and will only show if something is
True.

Hi =?Utf-8?B?VHJ1ZWdlZWs=?=,
I'm afraid the problem you're running into logically makes sense, even if the
result does not. The ListNum field nested within the IF field still updates,
and is still recognized, no matter how the IF evaluates.
