Creating and Inserting Bookmarks

L

Lynda Kinley

How can I create several bookmarks in one document and then used them in the
main document? I am having trouble getting the bookmark defined in my main
document. Also is it possble to have logic around a bookmark--For example:

If bookmark (Name1) = XXX and Bookmark (Name2) = YYY, then includetext
MyLetter.doc.

If it is a mail merge document then you probably cannot use bookmarks in
this way. Bookmark names have to be unique.You cannot duplicate them for
each record. However if that is not what you are doing, the syntax which
should work every time is:

{ INCLUDETEXT "{ IF{ REF Name1 } = "XXX" "{ IF{ REF Name2 } = "YYY" "D:\\My
Documents\\Test\\Mydocument.doc" "D:\\My Documents\\Test\\Blank.doc" }"
"D:\\My Documents\\Test\\Blank.doc" }" }

Where blank.doc is an empty document.

The simpler
{ IF{ REF Name1 } = "XXX" "{ IF{ REF Name2 } = "YYY" "{ INCLUDETEXT "D:\\My
Documents\\Test\\Mydocument.doc" }" "" }" "" }
should also work in most circumstances.

Substitute your own docname and path
