MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / October 2004E-mail merge with hyperlinks
I am trying to e-mail merge from Access to Word. All works great except the last line. I have a hyperlink address (different for each user) set up in my database. Word pulls in the info and sends the e-mail, but the received e-mail only shows the hyperlink as text, not as an active hyperlink. I've tried formatting the merge code as a hyperlink and the e-mail shows it merged in hyperlink format, but the link is not active. Any ideas? Thanks in advance...

See Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 813673 for the fix to make hyperlinks stay active after e-mail merges: (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=813673) Once I followed the steps, everything worked fine, all my hyperlinks were active in the received e-mails. Good luck! :) Samantha > I am trying to e-mail merge from Access to Word. All works great except the > last line.
