Default Unwanted HTML Header In Word Email Merge

Hi ?B?bTE0bTE=?=,

Using Outlook, Word and Excel 2003 to create an email merge, I get an
unwanted attachment on the resulting emails; it is 3 kb in size and contains
only lines or underscores. The email format is HTML

The attachment is named "header.htm (3kb)".

As a test, try holding CTRL to start Word in "Safe Mode". This will force a
clean copy of the default template. Attach the data source to the new document
that you get when Word starts, then execute the merge. Does mail merge still
generate the attachment?
