A or B insert condition
Like a True / False insert condition, an A or B insert condition allows you to specify the text that is sent to recipients if the condition is true or if it is false, and allows you to specify the relationship.
For example, equal to, greater than, and so on between what is in the field and the value you specify.
It also allows you to add additional conditions, so if a recipient meets the requirements of any of your conditions, the text you specify is sent.
For example, say you have been using the Comment_ field to contain information about recipients' interests
in sports. You can use an A or B insert condition to include your conditional text to anyone whose interest
is skating or hockey. If a recipient has expressed an interest in either sport, the text you specify
is sent.
If you want to send a message to those who have shown an interest in both skating and hockey, you have to use an A and B insert Condition. For more information, see A and B insert condition
For more information about conditions in general, see Inserting a Condition.
