Description Jacqueline Rahemipour 2011-11-29 11:37:00 UTC
Created attachment 53957 [details]
simple spreadsheet with some names and salutation

Checked with LibO 3.4.4 / Win 7

I tried to create a personalized salutation in a mail merge using the field "conditional text" and it works fine, if I test it with the option "data to fields". The condition fails when printing the document or saving the merged document in a file.

I will attach a simple example (spreadsheet + starting document).

Hi Jacqueline
- should try this later...
Was it OK in a previous version that you know?
Cheers - Cor

This worked in LibO 3.3.x - has anyone time to check and confirm this issue?

will try.
in any case, a conditional paragraph field with 'FPP.FPP.AFD EQ ""'  works for me

In what way does the condition fail?
