if statement and compare

[Cathy S]

I want to set up the following in my letter checking a few merge fields ...
If either OCAS_OP_1 or OCAS_OP_2 or OCAS_OP_3 or OCAS_SUS_1 or OCAS_SUS_2 or
OCAS_SUS_3 = "Y" to display message A and if not to display message B

Can you help? Thanks

{ IF { MERGEFIELD OCAS_OP_1 } = "Y" "MESSAGE A" { IF { MERGEFIELD
OCAS_OP_2 } = "Y" "MESSAGE A" { IF { MERGEFIELD OCAS_OP_3 } = "Y" "MESSAGE
A" { IF { MERGEFIELD OCAS_SUS_1 } = "Y" "MESSAGE A" { IF { MERGEFIELD
OCAS_SUS_2 } = "Y" "MESSAGE A" { IF { MERGEFIELD OCAS_SUS_3 " = "Y" "MESSAGE
A" "MESSAGE B" }}}}}}

You must use Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair of field delimiters { }; Alt+F9 to
toggle off the display of the field codes and probably F9 to update the
fields to display the result.
