IncludePicture - fields rendering when I save the source document
Hi,
I'm trying to fix a mailmerge INCLUDEPICTURE problem. My data source contains the filename (eg "bhc.gif") and all files are in a folder on our server ("P:\Events\Company logos for booklets"). I can create a merge field which can merge to a new document just fine. However, once I save the source document, the merge field changes! For example, I start off with: { INCLUDEPICTURE "{ DOCVARIABLE "MyPath" }{MERGEFIELD "ProductPhotoReceived" }" } I merge to a new document, update the links and hey, presto - images are all fine. I go back to the source document, click save, and the merge field changes to: { INCLUDEPICTURE "../../../Events/Company%20logos%20for%20booklets/ Holloway%20White%20Allom.jpg" \* MERGEFORMAT } This effectively breaks the mergefield, and creating a new merge document doesn't merge correctly. Why is Word changing my fields? Thanks in advance Andy |
