IF() used in a field

[Bob.Lawson]

I am trying to use IF() when building an address string but keep running into a ClassNotFound error.

$F{site_name}+"n"+		$F{site_address1}+"n"+		IF($F{site_address2}.length()>0,$F{site_address2}+"n","")+		$F{site_city}+", "+$F{site_state}+", "+$F{site_zip}[/code]

I have tried many things but I can not seem to run it with the IF() included. I have checked all the fields and the above prints fine if I do not have the IF().

Ideas?

Thanks

I think, you cannot use an IF()...

Even if you could, you've used the if clause wrong.

It should look like this:

if(Field.length > 0){  Field_Side_Address2 + "n"} + the Rest...[/code]

 

 

You could try sth. like this:

$F{site_name}+"n"+ $F{site_adress1}+"n"+($F{site_address2}.length() > 0? $F{site_address2}+"n":"")+$F{site_city}+", "+$F{site_state}+", "+$F{site_zip}[/code]

The princip:

x > y ?  here_the_commands_if_true : here_the_commands_if_false[/code]

And don't forget the Clips! If you forget them, teh compiler uses the rest for the clause to

 

You can make a breakline with this "command": "<br>"
