I'm sure there is an easy answer for this, however, I am a real newbie, and am struggling with what to do. I want to change a letterhead on a form letter layout, based on the contents of a field in the main database layout. The field contains the letter writers name, and is either "user a", "user b", or "user a & b". I think I need to create a calculation that will take one of the 3 graphic letterheads (each of which is stored on the main database layout in a global file labeled "user a letterhead" "user b letterhead" etc.) and insert it into a container on the layout. Can anyone help me with this??

... fairly straight forward... make a calculation field with result container to hold your final letterhead...then as the calculation just do...also, feel free to set the calc field to unstored though its not exactly necessary it'll save you a bit of room...

Case(

userfield = "user a" ; user a letterhead ;

userfield = "user b" ; user b letterhead ;

userfield = "user a & b" ; user ab letterhead

)
