Default IF statements in mail merge with results displayed based on date of letter

Hi,


I would like to develop some IF statements within a mail merge that display results based on if a date is greater or less than the date the letter is produced?
For example
{if date letter is produced <=13/11/19 then "example text 1"}
{if date letter is produced >13/11/19 but <=29/2/2020 then "example text 2"}
{if date letter is produced >29/2/2020 but <=6/6/2020 then "example text 3"}

Is this possible at all and what would be the code? The date letter is produced field would be the Insert>date and Time field within the Insert menu.
Hope that makes sense.
Andy

To see how to do this and just about everything else you might want to do with dates in Word, check out my Microsoft Word Date Calculation Tutorial, a 'Sticky' thread at the top of the Word forum:
Microsoft Word Date Calculation Tutorial
In particular, look at the item titled Use Date (And/Or Time) Comparisons To Vary Text. Do read the document's introductory material.
