Can you cc in mail merge

Yes, you can use conditional logic (also known as "conditional formatting" or "conditional text") in a mail merge to include or exclude certain text or fields based on conditions. This is often referred to as "conditional merging" or "conditional mail merge".

In Microsoft Word, you can use the "IF" function to create a condition that checks the value of a field or a formula, and then includes or excludes text based on that condition.

Here's an example:

Suppose you're creating a mail merge letter to customers, and you want to include a special offer for customers who have placed an order in the last 30 days. You can use the following syntax:

IF(Fields!OrderDate < DATEADD("d", -30, TODAY()), "Special Offer", "")

This formula checks if the value in the "OrderDate" field is less than 30 days ago (using the DATEADD function). If the condition is true, it includes the text "Special Offer". If the condition is false, it includes no text.

You can then use this formula in your mail merge document to include or exclude the special offer text based on the condition.

Other examples of conditional logic you can use in mail merge include:

• IF(Fields!Status = "Active", "Active", "Inactive") to include different text based on the value of a field called "Status"
• IF(Fields!Balance > 0, "Overdue", "") to include a message if the balance is overdue
• IF(Fields!Country = "USA", "Hello from the USA!", "") to include a greeting based on the value of a field called "Country"

Keep in mind that the specific syntax and functions available may vary depending on the version of Microsoft Word you're using, as well as the type of data you're working with.
