I have not come across that problem before. You might ask in an Outlook
newsgroup, or try (though you might not want to do it) erasing the memorized
list by following the instructions at:

Er...actually I wrote too soon...I hope this is the right way to post a
message to keep the thread going. Outlook now appears to be interfering
with
the mail merge email addresses from the source data / directoryfile and
superimposing email addresses on the contacts for which it has different
emails. I do have data duplication between my Outlook and my source data,
and
some of the details (home vs work emails etc) are different. Can I turn
this
interference off and just have Outlook accept the addresses I feed in,
regard;ess of what it 'thinks'?

That's great Doug, thanks a lot, thought I'd tried that already but can't
have done it right. Works perfectly. Thanks - and apologies again!

Hi Doug, Really appreciate the very swift reply....Please bear with
my
stupidity. When I open a fresh word doc as a test for the text of the
email I
go as if to do a "normal" email merge - ie through Tools,
Letters&Mailings,
Mail Merge etc -. Att he doc type I choose Email? And then continue
as
normal? If I do this I can see that no new doc is actually generated
at
all
by the last stage (6). If I choose directory I can generate a new
document
on
wihch to wotrk, but I still have the same message on running the
macro.
Apologies. It is almost certainly a basic misundertanding of
merging....

Hi. I have been trying to implement MVP Doug Robbins' technique
for
allowing
MS outlook (2003) to add attachments to email merges
(www://word.mvps.org/FAQs?MailMerge/MergeWithAttachments.htm). I
have -
I
think - followed every step. But no matter how many permutations I
have
tried
I have still not succeeded in sending a single email - let alone
one
with
an
attachment (always says '0 messages sent' at the end of the
process).
Can
anyone suggest where I might be going wrong? Presumambly there are
no
errors
in the macro or in the preparation steps as it wd have given me a
different
error message and not allowed me to go all the way through the
process
only
to tell me I had sent no messages?
