Field codes appear between curly brackets ( { } ). You can switch between displaying the field code and the result for a selected field by selecting Toggle Field Codes in the context menu.
When you view a field code in your document, the syntax looks like this:
{ FIELDNAME Properties Optional_Switches }
- FIELDNAME - This is the name of the field.
- Properties - These are any instructions or variables that are used in a particular field. Not all fields have parameters, and in some fields, parameters are optional.
- Optional switches - These are any optional settings that are available for a particular field. Not all fields have switches available, other than those that control the formatting of the field results.
For example, the {MERGEFIELD Weather.condition \*Upper} field denotes the MERGEFIELD field bound to the Weather.condition data field, which displays the text in all caps.
The following format switches are supported.
