[If Statement] Malformed if statement in "Action" tool

Hello Everyone. 

I am trying to put an "if statement" in the action tool, however it gives me error.

I'm pretty sure that the this statement is correct, so maybe there is another rule when trying to use it in the Action Tool.

Here is the printscreen. Does anybody knows what could be wrong?

You are missing ENDIF at the end of your statement.

And as an added tip, when using a checkbox or radio button the result is Boolean and therefore you shouldn’t need to do IF [#2] = ‘True’ THEN ...

 

You can just use IF [#2] THEN

Ben, thanks for the reply!

It's still not working!

You also need a space between if and your [#2]
