I'm using If fields and seem to be repeting the same steps. The typeacct is
usually A but the COL changes, but I when they match i need to include the
form abc. Is there a short cut to complete this task?? (does this make
sense?)

For ex.{if { MERGEFIELD Typeacct ="A" "{if {MERGEFIELD col }="Anderson"
"{includetext "f:\\forms\\abc" \* Mergeformat }" "" }" ""}

Lost in Cincy,

Your example doesn't match your field. "A" and "Anderson" do not match.

If you are trying to match "A" and "A" you can use either of these fields
(Note I have abbreaviated your mergefield names):

{ IF { Typeacct } = { Col }"Do This""Do That" }

{ IF { Compare{ Typeacct }={ Col } } = 1 "Do This""Do That" }

If you want a condition match "A" to "Anderson" then you would need
something like:

{ IF { Typeacct } = "A"{ IF { Col }="Anderson""Do This""Do That"}"Do
That" }
