Thanks Mike and Peter
I went with Peter’s suggestion because I couldn’t get yours to work (initially) Mike. Afterward I played with yours and I believe you meant to leave out the [strip] tags, once I remove those it worked as expected. That makes yours and Peter’s suggestion very similar, but with yours you can take advantage of any processing you can do anywhere in the page more easily. I’m not doing any more processing in this block but thought I’d mention it for the archives. 
Work around #1
-----------------------------
[tmpn IE]
     <!--[scratch IE]>
          test 1
     <![endif]-->

[/tmpn]
  
[if scratch foo]
        [include pages/existingpage.html]
[else]
        regular page content
        [scratch IE]
[/else]
[/if]


Work around #2
-----------------------------
[tmpn IE][if IE][/tmpn]
  
[if scratch foo]
      [include pages/existingpage.html]
[else]
        regular page content
            <!--[scratch IE]>
                test 1
                .... and other ITL processing...
            <![endif]-->
[/else]
[/if]


Thank you again
Paul
