Can you Loop & Merge long, formatted blocks of text?

Hi all. I need to present my participants with a large number of long blocks of formatted text to read. They will answer a specific set of questions after reading each text, so I would like to use Loop & Merge instead of creating distinct blocks for each text. Is there a way to feed rich text into Loop & Merge? Perhaps through a spreadsheet of stimuli?

Correct, but you don't need any as they don't provide any html functionality. Use


for line breaks.

Thanks very much for the information. Seems to work great. You cannot have any returns within the loop & merge field, correct? (Or at least I don't seem to be able to copy/paste them.

You can add text with html tags to your loop and merge fields. You can create the fields in Excel and copy/paste them into the loop and merge setup all at once. Go to row 1, field 1 and paste.
