I'm running XP and Word2003.

I'm trying to make some name badges for a high school reunion.

Mailmerge does the names from a list perfectly. I try to insert a jpg
template with the high school's name, colors, etc. and the names don't show
up.

I try to format the jpg file in the mailmerge to allow text in front, but
all I can get is auto format, which doesn't display the option.

Is this possible to add a jpg image to mailmerge?

Thanks,

Dennis

I ended up making two print runs.

The first print run for my jpg image;

And a second run to add the participants names fron the name list.

Much easier.

Thanks,

Dennis
