I use MS Office 2003 and Windows XP. My goal is to create individual
documents with text, tables and images from a mail merge. Previously, I
used a SplitMerge macro that I found at the website of Graham Mayor:

http://www.gmayor.com/individual_merge_letters.htm

I would run the mail merge, update the document by pressing Ctrl+A and
F9, and then run the SplitMerge macro to create individual files. I am
now working with a document where some pages are portrait and others
landscape. Because the formatting is controlled by section breaks, the
SplitMerge macro breaks up the pages for each record into separate
sections, partly overwriting previously saved documents from earlier
records.

A partial solution to this problem was a template called
MMtoDocsRev18.dot by Doug Robbins that I found on the same page as the
SplitMerge macro (see URL above). The information for each record is
properly saved as an individual document, with the page orientations
intact. However, the images are not updated and all documents show the
same images from the first record. To display the correct images I have
to open each document individually and then press Ctrl+A and F9.

Is it possible to automatically update the images before the merged
document is split into individual files?

Many thanks for your help.
