Email INCLUDEPICTURE MERGEFIELD Pictures Not Changing
I am trying to Merge To Email such that each email has a unique picture.
After the merge, all text fields are correct but the picture is unfortunately the same for all emails. If I select Merge To A New Document in the orginal document and update the new document (Control a, Control F9), the correct pictures appear. I'm not so sure how to do this for Merge To Email. The Excel source document is C:\\Publisher\\DataSource.xls and the relevant column is called Picture. Data in the Picture column cells point to the pictures e.g. C:\\Publisher\\1.jpg In the orginal Word document the picture MERGEFIELD is {INCLUDEPICTURE "{MERGEFIELD Picture}" \* MERGEFORMAT} Any assistance is appreciated. |

Email INCLUDEPICTURE MERGEFIELD Pictures Not Changing
See the "Individual Merge Letters" item on fellow MVP Graham Mayor's website
at: http://www.gmayor.com/individual_merge_letters.htm If you are using Word XP or later, the "Add-in to Merge Letters to Separate Files" that I have written and that can be downloaded from that site will allow you to create each letter as a separate file with a filename taken from a field in the data source with a minimum of fuss. Then see the article "Mail Merge to E-mail with Attachments" at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MailMerge/...ttachments.htm to send each message as an attachment to the recipients. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "Freddy" wrote in message ...

Email INCLUDEPICTURE MERGEFIELD Pictures Not Changing
The only way I know of to merge images direct to email or fax is to use an
add-in called OnMerge Images. The add-in also automates the macro coding and handles the case where no image is available for a given data record. A free trial is available at http://onmerge.com/Demo.html Hope this helps, Miles "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote in message ...
