I've tested your attachment with a data source of my own (using different field names) and established that Previews 1 & 4 work fine as they are. Previews 2 & 3 lacked the quote characters necessary to make them work and the field with the switch in Preview 2 needed to be one paragraph lower. With those issues addressed, all four previews work, though Previews 2 & 3 don't honour the inter-paragraph spacing (an apparent limitation of that method).

See attached.
