Default Use an Access 2007 attachment field in a merge

Hello,

Is there a way to use an Access 2007 attachment field in a Word 2007
merge? In fact, the Access field contains several attachments from
which I'd like to extract one (image) and display this image on a Word
document in a merege procedure.

See the "Graphics from data base" item under the "Special merges" section of
fellow MVP Cindy Meister's website at
http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindy...r/MergFram.htm

If you create a query in Access in the output of which you included the File
Name of the attachment, you should be able to make use of that query with
the above information.

Hope this helps.

Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my
services on a paid consulting basis.
