The table on page 357 of the User Guide shows what can be made conditional
and how to select it. As you can see, table columns (for obvious reasons)
cannot be made conditional. To make an ancchored frame and its contents
conditional, you must select either the anchored frame border, or the anchor
symbol (appears only when View > Text Symbols is turned on).
