Hi,

Here's my code:

{ IF { MERGEFIELD SALUTATION }= "" "Dear { MERGEFIELD FIRSTNAME }," "Dear {
MERGEFIELD SALUTATION } { MERGEFIELD LASTNAME }," }

This code only displays "MERGEFIELD"

The rest of the address fields display fine, but this won't work. Any ideas?

Thank you,

Marty

Did you insert each pair of field boundaries with CTRL+F9?
Did you toggle the display (ALT+F9)

Thank you very much. I was using the bracket key on the keyboard. It works now.

Thanks,

Marty
