Hi J,
Have you looked into the possibility of using nested IF fields? As in:
IF Condition 1 then <IF Condition 2 Then <Result 1> <Result 2>> <Result
3>...
Look up IF in the Word Help, there are some examples....
The only limit is you brain power to handle the complex lines of code you
get when you start having many levels... I did 5 nested IF fields once, let
me tell you that you do not absent-mindedly watch TV at the same time!
HTH
Cheers!
