Shouldn't this work so that if the value of bookmark1 * bookmark2 is
anything other then 0 it will display the value of bookmark1 * bookmark2,
otherwise it will be blank. In stead it shows <> no matter what the value of
the bookmarks are.


Insert-Field
Field Codes:

IF { = bookmark1 * bookmark2 } <> 0 { = bookmark1 * bookmark2 }

If it matters it's word 2000

If the field result is <> then you have not created a field but simply typed
the entry. You must use CTRL+F9 for each pair of field boundaries. The
syntax would then be:

{IF{={REF Bookmark1} * {REF Bookmark2}} <> 0 "{={REF Bookmark1} * {REF
Bookmark2}}"}
or
{IF{={Bookmark1} * {Bookmark2}} <> 0 "{=({Bookmark1} * {Bookmark2}}" }
