Hi JennEx,

Your IF field has { IF {MERGEFIELD ALtStaffEnd}="X" """". You need to insert a space after the '=' The four double quotes also account for both the TRUE and FALSE results. Delete two. Alternatively, change the code to { IF {MERGEFIELD ALtStaffEnd}<> "X" {QUOTE ....

Also, having an X in the data source, along with times, may result in the 'X' records being evaluated as 0. Recall our earlier discussion of having mixed data types. You need to test the output with just {MERGEFIELD ALtStaffEnd} to see what you're getting in each case.
