I am trying to implement a system using the mail merge
facility of Outlook. While I can create the text of the
messages OK, and can do all the generation to email or
whatever, I am having problems with attachments to emails.

I want to be able to create a form email letter, then
attach files to all merged emails as they are sent. There
is no obvious option to do this in the email merge
procedure.

I tried to embed an object of the attached file into the
form letter. The resulting email did not include the
embedded object.

The next step was to send the same form letter as an
attachment during the mail merge process. This worked,
however it does not provide the opportunity for a short
messsage to the receiver, without having to double click
on an object.

Any ideas?

Please respond directly, I will not be tracking this forum
closely.

Cheers
Paul
 
Mail merge has never supported attachments. You'd need third party software.
