I am working with singular and plural data in my merge fields. How do I
ensure verb agreement when I merge the document. I am using word 2007. Thank you. -- bsp131 |

verb agreement in merge document
Word won't do it for you. You have to have some way to recognise whether
a word is singular or plural (in English, recognising it from the words themselves would be tricky in the general case, so you probably need a flag in your source data). Then you might be able to use IF fields to insert one verb form or another as appropriate. However, if you are able to be more specific about what is in your data and what kind of text you need to construct, it might be easier to help.
