How do I mail merge to EMAIL from MS Word AND add a pdf attachment

[Doug Robbins]

I assume that the / is a typing mistake. I would expect to see
c:\path\filename.ext

If you have the entries in that column in the catalog or directory type
mailmerge correct, it will work. If it is out by so much as a single space
anywhere, even after the extension, it will NOT work. The
drive\path\filename must be spot-on.

For the benefit of anyone else - you are exactly right. (I'm sure you knew
you were!)

I can't visually see the mistake. But it may have been a space at the end of
the extension. What I did is click address bar under toolbars when opening up
the file so that it showed all of the path\filename etc. when I clicked the
drop down. I then copied and pasted that - and it worked great.

Not always, but in this case yes, I did know that I was right.

What happens differently in 2007?

As far as I know, there is no new facility in Word 2007 that will do it for
you.
