Default Email Attachment in Word 2003 Mail Merge

You have not executed the merge of the document that is to become the text
of the email message to a new document before running the macro, which must
be run when the document created by executing that merge is the active
document.

Hi. I have been trying to implement MVP Doug Robbins' technique for
allowing
MS outlook (2003) to add attachments to email merges
(www://word.mvps.org/FAQs?MailMerge/MergeWithAttachments.htm). I have - I
think - followed every step. But no matter how many permutations I have
tried
I have still not succeeded in sending a single email - let alone one with
an
attachment (always says '0 messages sent' at the end of the process). Can
anyone suggest where I might be going wrong? Presumambly there are no
errors
in the macro or in the preparation steps as it wd have given me a
different
error message and not allowed me to go all the way through the process
only
to tell me I had sent no messages?
