Never mind! (Picture Gilda Radner saying that). My coworker just now
figured it out. She went into the merge code and manipulated it so that
it worked. But she thinks there should be an easier way to do it, so if
anyone knows of one, we'd still be interested to learn about it. Thanks
again.

Hello all -
A coworker has been struggling with the following problem. She has
searched the help files, and has not found any answers.

She's creating a merge primary doc, and she wants to create a
conditional statement... If "country" = "USA", do not use the country
field. In other words, leave country blank, unless the country is
something other than USA, in which case, she wants country to print.
She does not want to skip the record altogether, which is the only
option Word is giving her.

Does anyone know of the solution? Thanks in advance -
