Complex E-Mail Merge Help Needed

[A_Librarian]

I'm trying to do a complex e-mail merge.

I'm using a merge file similar to:
http://cornell.veplan.net/article.aspx?&a=3815

My data source is an excel file, which includes the email addresses.

When I go to 'Finish & Merge'

if I choose 'Edit Individual Documents...' everything looks great.


if I choose 'Send E-Mail Documents' I get a mess.

What's the solution?

(Besides not trying to use Word for anything more than typing simple memos)

You cannot combine directory merges with a merge to e-mail. You would have
to merge to the new document, split that document and e-mail the individual
files - see http://www.gmayor.com/individual_merge_letters.htm

Mailmerge toolkit add-in for Outlook
