PDF als anhang an word serienmail

I've sent a formatted Word document including graphics in an email body and
it arrives exactly as sent. However if I try and mailmerge to email using
exactly the same document and email address, the email arrives as plain text
, without any graphics. I assume the automation process removes the Word
formatting?

I know, but I think that is because Word uses techniques which I do not
believe are available through its automation methods. But I may be wrong of
course!

By the way does word 2003 supports sending mail merge with attachments.

No, it is the same as Word 2002 in this respect.

Thank you for your reply,

So it should be possible to do the same with a macro to add also
attachments.

I don't think so, but I don't really know.

I saw your other messages and looked at the object model. I think there
are at least the following problems:
a. adding attachments can alter the format of the message anyway (I
think)
b. according to the Outlook object model documentation, the thing you
assign to .HTMLBody should be HTML text. I do not think
ActiveDocument.Content or any other Word range will return this, so you
will probably need to save the document as HTML first, then copy its text
to a string buffer, then assign that to .HTMLBody. I haven't tried this
so am not sure. However, the problem with that is that HTML does not
actually contain images, only links to images. So I do not think you will
be able to put image data in a message body using this technique.

is it posible to do this alsi with a dokument containing Grafiks and
formated text.

I tried HTMLBODY like this:
.Subject = mysubject
.HTMLBody = ActiveDocument.Content

Set Datarange = Maillist.Tables(1).Cell(Counter, 1).Range

Datarange.End = Datarange.End - 1

.To = Datarange

For i = 2 To Maillist.Tables(1).Columns.Count

Set Datarange = Maillist.Tables(1).Cell(Counter, i).Range

Datarange.End = Datarange.End - 1

.Attachments.Add Trim(Datarange.Text), olByValue, 1

Next i
.Send

but there are no grafik and formated text in the mailbody what is
wrong??

ich möchte ein pdf als Anlage an ein Word Serienmail anhängen.
Im Internet findet man die Aussage, dass das nicht möglich ist.
Kann das sein?
Gibt es ein Addin oder irgendein anderes Programm, mit dem man die in
Word
vorbereitete Serienmail mit Anhang verschicken kann.
Ich verwende Word XP und Outlook XP als Mailprogramm.

Vielen Dank für rasche Rückantwort.

Yes, the options a
a. your mail merge main document (with field values substituted) is
converted to plain text in the body of the message
b. your mail merge main document (with field values substituted) is
inserted as an attachment and the body of the message is blank
c. your mail merge main document (with field values substituted) is sent as
an HTML message. however, this option is only available from Word 2002 and
later, practically speaking it only seems to be available with Outlook, and
even that may not work on some systems.
