Each month I produce a document that needs to be sent to two separate
groups of recipients. Group A needs client names to be visible, but
group B mustn't see them. Currently I produce just one document with
the names replaced by an index into another file, and group B never get
the file, but this has become a problem when group A discusses the
document at monthly meetings - they want the names to be in the
document.
Is there a simple way of doing this in Word 2000?
On a mainframe using DCF it would be very simple indeed, and I've tried
using field codes in a futile attempt to mimic what I'd do in DCF.
For example...
{ASK Target "Enter GRPA or GRPB" \*MERGEFORMAT \d "GRPA"}
...
{IF Target = "GRPA" "Fred Bloggs" "" \*MERGEFORMAT }
...
{IF Target = "GRPA" "Mary Flood" "" \*MERGEFORMAT }
...
But its just not working - I clearly don't really understand them and I
can't find a decent reference source with examples.
Can anyone help please?
