Hi Richard,

I don't know what could be wrong... but the text in my photo fields have the
..jpg extension in it. For example, my code would just be

{INCLUDEPICTURE "C:\\Pix\\{MERGEFIELD photo}"}

because the text in the photo field is SmithJoe.jpg.

I don't know if that would have anything to do with it, but I guess it's
worth a shot. Also, are you using CTRL and F9 to bring the brackets up,
instead of typing in "{" and "}" ?

Hope this helps, I'm not that great at this stuff, just started doing it
recently for a project at work.

Glad you got your problem solved. Now, can you help me with my similar problem?

{INCLUDEPICTURE "C:\\Pix\\{MERGEFIELD photo}.jpg"}

The merge worked and a picture frame was included. The image was not there
though. There was the type of icon like you see on a web page when there is a
problem with the link to the image file.

My picture image is named SmithJoe.jpg and is stored in the directory
C:\Pix. There is a field in the table named photo that contains the text
SmithJoe.

Thanks for the help!
