Hi ?B?QWx3aW4gTW9yZ2Vuc3Rlcm4=?=,
I am using mail merge with Outlook. My questions is: I am using a "User field", the information there is a web site. How can I change the mail merge command that the result in email message is then later a hyperlink? Rght now the result is only the field informaiton. Generating hyperlinks as the result of a mail merge is very tricky, and generally doesn't work when merging to email (Outlook). With the help of a macro, you can usually manage to get the hyperlinks by merging to a new document, then use a macro to break up the merge result and send the emails. My advice would be to check out the list of non-Word "mail merge" tools available at slipstick.com Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Jun 17 2005) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-) |
