Hi Charlie,

You can use an IF field, coded along the lines of:
{IF«MyField»= "YES" "email" "hardcopy"}
where 'MyField' is the field name in your data.

Note: The field brace pairs (ie '{ }') for the above example are created via Ctrl-F9 - you can't simply type them or copy & paste them from this message. Likewise, you can't type or copy & paste the chevrons (ie '« »') - they're part of the actual mergefields, which you can insert from the mailmerge toolbar.
