the conditional text in the document.
1. Place the cursor where the conditional text is to be inserted in the text.
2. Choose Insert . Fields > Other.
3. Click the Functions tab.
4. Click “Conditional text” in the Type list.
5. Type Reminder EQ "3" in the Condition box. In other words, the conditional text
will be displayed when the variable in the field that was defined in the first part of this
example is equal to three.
The quotation marks enclosing the number 3 indicate that the variable, defined in the first
part of this example is a text string. See above for a list of operators that can be used when
defining a condition.
