Mail Merge With Attachment
I have read the many posts on the site about this but I am having trouble
making it work. I can get it to send the e-mail but it does not attach the documents. I run the macro after I have merged the e-mail to a new document and I am prompted for the directory document but it still doesn't work. any ideas as to why? thanks! |

Mail Merge With Attachment
In what way doesn't it work? Are the messages sent but without the
attachments? or is nothing sent at all? Note that the path\filenames for the attachments in the directory document must match exactly the actual path and file name of the file that is to be attached. Just one space more or less will prevent the file from being attached. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

The e-mail is sent but the attachment is not there, do I need to hyperlink
the attachments also or? I know the paths themselves are correct...... I'm bringing the path in from an excel data source, could it be a formatting issue?

If the attachments are not there, it is almost certainly because the
path/file name in the directory type mail merge (and hence in the data source) is not 100.0000000000% correct. 99.99999999999% will not do. -- Hope this helps.
