includepicture From URL + Mergefield
Hi all,
I have a problem with a picture included in a mail merge. I created a IncludePicture field, it reads a URL which into have a mergefiel; it reads as follows: {INCLUDEPICTURE "http://MyURL/IMG_{MERGEFIELD "Picture"}.jpg" \*MERGEFORMAT} In Db´s "Picture" field I have the number of the pics such 0001, 0002, 0003, etc.. and when I took a look the Includepicture field in Word, I can see it changes, but the picture remins unchanged. I mean: registry 1, 2, 3, etc... must show the pics 0001, 0002, 0003, etc... respectively, but the pic shown is alwais the same, only the data changes. For example: Registry 1 {MERGEFIELD "Picture"} data is 0001 shows the Pic 0001; Registry 2 {MERGEFIELD "Picture"} data is 0002 shows again the pic 0001; Registry 3 {MERGEFIELD "Picture"} data is 0003 still shows the pic 0001; etc... Someone know something abouty this problem and the solution? Thanks in advance. Thomas. |

Merge to a new document, select the document (CTRL+A) then F9 to update.
