I'm trying to associate a jpg file with certain records
that I can then merge into form letters.

I designed the field with "OLE Object" as the data type. I
right clicked, Insert Objects, Create from File, selected
the file I wanted, clicked ok.

When I tried to merge those records, the phrase "Long
binary or text value" appeared where I anticipated my jpgs
would turn up.

Can someone explain to me, like I'm a none-too-bright five
year old, how to get the result I want?

Thank you!
 
And--I've also tried to cut and paste the jpg and the
same "Long binary or text value" thing appears.
