Format of document when merging into email
I am using Word and Outlook 2003 with SP3 installed.
I have created a mail merge document that I am trying to send via Outlook. Everything work fine, except for the formatting. Two issues: 1. When I send myself a test message, the font changes in two places. I have verified all fonts in the original Word document, and they are the same throughout. 2. The first half of the document is fine, but about half-way through, the beginning of the sentences are cut-off. I can fix this by moving them over in the original word document, but does anyone know why this occurs? Can anyone help with these issues? Thanks! LB |

Format of document when merging into email
If you are concerned about the appearance of the document, send it as an
attachment See the article "Mail Merge to E-mail with Attachments" at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MailMerge/...ttachments.htm To create individual documents to be used a attachments for each message see the "Individual Merge Letters" item on fellow MVP Graham Mayor's website at: http://www.gmayor.com/individual_merge_letters.htm If you are using Word XP or later, the "Add-in to Merge Letters to Separate Files" that I have written and that can be downloaded from that site will allow you to create each letter as a separate file with a filename taken from a field in the data source with a minimum of fuss. -- Hope this helps.
