I am trying to use IF field. I want to compare a form
field item. eg. in form field there are two items (1) abc
and (2) xyz (no more then 2 items)- Bookmark name is
sys_choice
I want to use in such a way that if item in form field is
abc then it should return text1 else test2.
Currently I am writing it in this way IF(sys_choice =
ÈabcÈ, Ètext1È Ètext2È

È- this sign is actually double quote my keyboard is
playing today.

Any help...

Many Thanks
Rishabh
 
Rishabn,

Use CTRL+F9 to insert field code brakets. Within the brackets, type

IF sys_choice = "abc""Text1"Text2"
 
What you should end up with is a field that looks like
{IF {REF sys_choice} = "abc" "Text1" "Text2"}
or
{IF {sys_choice} = "abc" "Text1" "Text2"}

Flag the 'calculate on exit' box for the sys_choice form field so that the
conditional field is updated.
