choose a picture?
Is there any way that I can have Word choose to include a particular picture
based on a value in a mailmerge field? I have seen that there is a LINK instruction but I can't find any good examples of how to use it. What I want to achieve is for PictureA to be the background to a particular half page, but if there is a value in a particular merge field, for the background to become PictureB? |

Thanks Graham. I see from your site that I can make the images an AutoText
entry too. Neat. "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...
