Try:
<%= Model.DisplayText ? "" : Model.MyText %>
or
<% if(!Model.DisplayText) Response.Write(Model.MyText); %>

The ternary operator solution was exactly what I needed. Thank you! P.S. In that case there wouldn't be a semicolon so you may want to remove that for others that look up this solution. Thanks again!

A:
This:
<%= foo %>
is generally equivalent to:
<% Response.Write(foo) %>
So you can write:
<% if (!Model.DisplayText) { Response.Write(Model.MyText); } %>
but I don't see what you really get from this. Your original code is fine as it is. Or you might use the ternary operator, as OrbMan suggests.

You're missing a semi-colon after the call to Response.Write at the least, and this is probably a case where the brackets would best be left out.

A:
<%= %> is basically like writing Response.Write(your data)
<% %> means the code will execute, but it's not going to specifically write anything out.
You could use a Response.Write inside your if block to output the data you want.
<% if (!Model.DisplayText) { Response.Write(Model.MyText); } %>
Or go with OrbMan's answer, he beat me to it.
