You would need to use a macro that accesses the Outlook Object Model to do
that.
You will find a lot of what you need in the article "Mail Merge to E-mail
with Attachments" at:

Performing a mail merge in MS Word 2003 ...when the email messages get
sent
out from Outlook I want the Importance button set to high (the red
exclamation mark). There seems to be no option to set this for the purpose
of
an email merge.
Anyone?
