Thank you very much for your reply.

Sorry for the lack of clarity I did not think it needed further explanation as I just enter the condition rating on one page in a field and I want a message to be automatically inserted as set out previously.

I am writing a property condition report. Say the chimneystack section I find that the stacks are in good condition I would insert a 1 condition rating, this presumably would be input into a field, I want the statement "Section E1 Chimneystacks" to be automatically displayed under the condition rating 1 summary page at the front of the report.

I hope I can still impinge on your good nature by asking the following:

Will I be able to format the characters and numbers in the colours as shown previously?

Do I put your suggested code into a field in the document or will I need to do something else?

How do I reference the result of the case to show a statement in the summary section?

Thanking you in anticipation
