Subject:Conditional Text in Word Perfect? From:Lett Jennifer <Lett_Jennifer -at- EMS -dot- PRC -dot- COM> Date:Fri, 20 Jun 1997 11:43:56 -0400
Tech-whirlers,
Has anyone found a way to use conditional text (or something similar) in
Word Perfect 6.1? Are there any special tricks or caveats?
I know that this is possible in Framemaker and in Word using templates
and styles. Unfortunately, we cannot use either of them because our
customer now requires delivery of soft copy documentation in Word
Perfect 6.1 (I know, the latest version is 7.0). We support multiple
baselines with lots of similarities; it would be good if we could use
one central source for common information.
Please respond off-list and I will post a summary if there is enough
interest.
