Hi
I put picture into mail-merge document as it is described at
http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_graphics.htm

I can see picture and merged fields in document. When I merge to Email
everything works fine. But sent emails do not have picture. What is problem?

I'm using Word 2000, Excel 2000 and Outlook Express.

Thanks in advance
Nikola Milic

In Word 2000 you can only merge to email in two ways:
a. the merge document is converted into plain text and used as the body of
the document. All formatting and graphics are lost
b. the merge document is attached to the e-mail and the body text of the
e-mail is empty.

Although Word 2002 has a "merge to HTML e-mail" format, it does not work
with Outlook Express.
