Format to combine Truetext fields & special characters?

A

Andrew

I am having trouble getting the format right if I want to
combine a field, paragraph break and a second field as one
Truetext. eg.

{IF MergeCode="Home" "{ContactName} newparagraph {Contact
Address}" {FalsetextField}}

....but, what to put in the newparagraph spot. I've tried
Chr(), but it just prints Chr(). If I close the "", I can't
get the appending to work. I've tried Special Characters,
but it just prints the special character.

On True, I'd like the results to be:
"Contact Name
Contact Address"

But the best I can get is:
"Contact Name Contact Address"

Suggestions? Thanks in advance.

It's even simpler than you think (I think :) ) - position the insertion
point after [ContactName] and press the enter key, just as you would to
create an ordinary new paragraph outside a field.

Ooops, thanks. Just trying to make life hard for myself.
