In the data source, you need one field that contains the email addresses of
each recipient. You create the mailmerge main document in the same way as normal, then at the point when you select the destination of the merge (Printer, New Document or Email), if you select the Email option, you will then get a dialog that asks you for the name of the field that contains the email addresses. -- Hope this helps.

So it is pretty much the same as Word 2002/3 then - but now I need to know how to automate the process, as the system we use does unattended merges throughout the day - at present it works fine at producing letters without any user interaction - could this be accomplished with an email merge? I know you can download an app to click 'Yes' to any dialog boxes in Word, but how can Word know to send it to an email in the first place without you clicking on anything? TIA |

Take a look at how it is done in the article "Mail Merge to E-mail with
Attachments" at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MailMerge/...ttachments.htm -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
