Default Non-mergefield related IF statement

Good idea, tx.
Text length seems to be limited to 64 chrs. though. No worries, I'll chop it
in pieces that fit.

Try

{ ={ SECTIONPAGES }-{ PAGE } \#";;'some text'" }

Hi,

Below field sits in the footer and behaves as expected in a normal
document.
The text only appears in the footer of the last page of each section.
When I apply mail merge to the document (which generates a multi-section
document), the merged document doesn't contain the IF fields anymore
because
they are resolved during the merge.
Any ideas anyone on how to maintain the IF fields in the resulting merged
document? Or some completely different approach to show a text only on
the
last page of each section of a merge result?

{IF {PAGE} {SECTIONPAGES} "" "some text"}

Thanks 1 000 000
Eddy.
