Hey, I solved it... don't know how but now the pictures are looking Great. I
saved the template as RTF First and then when you get to the part where you
are asked to Select Recipient I selected Start From existing document. So
that did it for me ... I think... but I also changed some other settings too
.... but I think that's what did it.
Thanks Peter

You may for example find that the settings in Word Tools|Options|General|Web
Options|"Browsers" and "Pictures" (more likely "Pictures") affect what
happens, because Word is probably saving each document to an HTML file
before constructing a message from it, and when it saves it will probably
use those settings. But I don't know for sure.

Well, I tried more HTML so far... attachment won't work either. This is
just
really strange. All other emails are fine except when I try to merge them.
You might be right about the "downgrading" ... I'll try changing some
settings around.
Thanks a lot for your input!!!!

Are you merging to an HTML email, or merging as an attachment? Can you
experiment with whichever method you are /not/ using?

Off the top of my head I would guess that if you are merging to HTML,
either
the merge process or your e-mail client (presumably Outlook) is modifyig
the
images, perhaps "downgrading" the resolution. It could be something to do
with the receiving e-mail client but I think that's unlikely in this
case.

Here is my dilema.I created a word template for an email merge. When I
send
the template the pictures show up with dots. However the original
template
pictures are fine. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you
