Duplicated IF Field

[Samuel]

Hi there,

I am currently creating a word document with various IF fields for a mail
merge we are sending out to many clients. The only problem I am having is
that in two seperate areas of the document I have the same IF statement and
so when performing the mail merge it asks the same question twice (the answer
will always be the same, 0=No, 1=Yes). Is it possible to take the answer from
the first question and take it across to be the answer of the same second
question? Ie, if the answer to the first question =1 , then it assumes the
same question much later on in the document is also 1?

The two IF fields are as follows.....

{IF{FILLIN "Do we do the clients PAYE? 0=No 1=Yes" \d "0" \o} = 0 "text if
no" "text if yes"}

later on...

{IF{FILLIN "Do we do the clients PAYE? 0=No 1=Yes" \d "0" \o} = 0 "text if
no" "text if yes"}

Hope this makes sense, i'm not used to using these fields and so have given
as much detail as possible!

Thanks in advanced,

In the first location use:

{IF{FILLIN "Do we do the clients PAYE? 0=No 1=Yes" \d "0" \o} = 0 "text if
no{SET Paye "text if no"}" "text if yes{SET Paye "text if yes"}"}

and in the second location, use

{ REF Paye }
