How do i make the true result of an if statement insert a document. The
document consists of about 5 to 6 pages of text.

Any assistance offered would be greately appreciated.

Thanks and have a nice day.

Use an INCLUDETEXT field that points to the file as the true result.

Thanks Doug, although when I use the includetext function as follows

{IF {part_time} < 1 "{ INCLUDETEXT c:\\terminology.doc}" "less than zero" }

I get { INCLUDETEXT c:\\terminology.doc} I think the syntax may be wrong but
I am not sure.

I inserted the part_time field and then edited it to modify it to appear as
it does above.
Once again any help would be greatly appreciated.

type this in.
