WHO MOVED THE GRAPHICS?
Hi All. I am trying to merge a document that contains graphic images. The
merge itself with the Access data is no problem. When I open the messages in Outlook the graphics have moved to different locations on the document resulting in no correlation between the text and the images. Please help urgently. -- Kepior Senso Fumor

WHO MOVED THE GRAPHICS?
If you are trying to merge to the body of e-mail documents, it is no
surprise that the layout has changed. The formatting requirements for Word documents and html e-mail are entirely different. If you want the format to stay the same you should send the merge documents as attachments (ideally in PDF format) - see http://www.gmayor.com/individual_merge_letters.htm and http://www.gmayor.com/EmailMergeWithAttachments.htm or see the article prepared by fellow MVP Doug Robbins at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MailMerge/...ttachments.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "AndrewDB" wrote in message ...

Hi Graham. Thanks for your response. Anybody know of any way around this? I
specifically do not want to send attachments. -- Kepior Senso Fumor "Graham Mayor" wrote: If you are trying to merge to the body of e-mail documents, it is no surprise that the layout has changed.

Then you will have to create your document in html from the outset and use
tables to layout your document. Working in Word, the web view may provide some clue as to what is required. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "AndrewDB" wrote in message ...

Hi Graham. I have solved this by saving the word document as a jpeg image and
inserting the image into the mail merge document. Tested this and it worked great. Great pity that Word is used as the default Outlook editor but cannot interface correctly as far as this goes. Thanks for your imput. Best regards Andrew -- Kepior Senso Fumor "Graham Mayor" wrote: Then you will have to create your document in html from the outset and use tables to layout your document.
