If mergefield and printing...

[Dave]

We have a statement which reads: {IF {MERGEFIELD Field} <> "" {INCLUDETEXT
"filename"}" ""}. The letter meges fine, but if we do a print preview or
merge to printer, the text block disappears. If we merge to document and then
print, it works fine.

Does anyone know why the text block is disappearing and/or a fix?

The fix is what you are already doing - merge to a new document and print
that document.

Is there any plan to fix it so one can just merge to the printer?

 

[Graham Mayor]

Not that I know of. It occurs because of the way Word handles nested fields
during a merge.
