I am not sure what you mean by "in the regular way" as Word does not have
that capability "out of the box" See the article "Mail Merge to E-mail with Attachments" at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MailMerge/...ttachments.htm -- Hope this helps.

I posted the following response to your message in another thread yesterday.
You should keep to the one thread so that it is easier to find the responses. I don't really know what is causing the reference to be ignored. It is the first time that I have heard of it happening. In the References dialog in the Visual Basic Editor, when the Microsoft Office Outlook 11.0 Object Library is selected, what appears in the lower section of the dialog where the location of the file is shown? -- Hope this helps.

I gather from your response that you are saying that
Location: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Office 11\M is all there is.
