Conditional Field

[CKTisdale]

Hello all new user here,



I was wondering if I could get some help from the experts. I am creating a form in Word for a shift turnover. I wish to add a conditional field for tasks that need to be done on certain days.

For example if the day is Monday I would like the field to be shown with a checkbox and text next to it.
If the day is not Monday I would like to hide the field.

Is this possible for Word?

Yes, it is possible. Will the form be prepared on the same day it will be used? If so, the following would be the construction.
{ IF { DATE \@ "ddd" } = "Mon" "list of instructions" }

Note, you cannot simply type these fields; the delimiters { } must be inserted in pairs using Ctrl+F9 or through the Insert > Field dialog.
