Merge Picture Not Working
For the sake of my sanity, can someone please tell me what I'm doing
wrong? I'm using Word 2003. I'm trying to create a directory with the person's picture beside their personal information, so I'm using two columns - one for the picture, one for the name,phone#,etc. What's happening is the textual information is updating and showing each subsequent record in the file, but the all the pictures copies of the first person in the directory. I've tried press Ctrl+A and then F9, but that seems to change all the text information to be duplicates of the first person in the directory (pressing the 'next record' and then 'previous record' corrects that part). How do I fix this? Thanks in advance, David |

Merge Picture Not Working
Let me add a little more information:
I'm trying to include the full path name in the excel spreadsheet from which I'm importing the information. I have quotation marks around the path name. Here's a sample of my code: { INCLUDEPICTURE "{MERGEFIELD "PictureLocationwithoutquotationmarks"}" \d \*MERGEFORMAT } When I toggle code, it appears like this: { INCLUDEPICTURE "W:\\Users\\DavidTownsend\\2007-2008\\Conferences\ \IPDET\\Photo Directory\\Attendee Pictures\\PAlexAcheampong.jpg" \d \* MERGEFORMAT } This shows the second name on the list. Yet, when I press Alt+F9 to show the results, it displays a copy of the picture of the first person, as are all subsequent pictures If at this point I press Ctrl+A then F9, all text the becomes duplicates of the first person.
