Word not saving If statement on file

ive been able to save these files before but now my word wont save IF statement data on my word document. Itll save the mergeform data but if i edit it to be IF statement and save and reopen the file it all gone .... 

 

left hand side shows the code (which is correct) and thr right side shows what happens after i save the file close it then reopen it .... blank all gone ?? (the first box that says Skillion and lean to) 

 

 

  • If you press ALT+F9 to toggle on the display of the field codes, does the If...then...Else field construction appear? If not, can you upload a copy of the document so that we can investigate the issue.
