Default Image field

Hi

I have to make letters for customers and print a map for each customer. I
have put the path for the map in a field of my table and then I have added
the IncludePicture to my letter as {INCLUDEPICTURE {customer.map}
\*MERGEFOTMAT} to get the address for the jpg file from the field inside the
customer table.

It does not work.

Would you please help me?
Thanks
Kati

The path separators \ need to be doubled \\ and you will need to update the
fields in the document produced by the merge to see the results.
See the "Graphics from data base" item under the "Special merges" section of
fellow MVP Cindy Meister's website at
