INCLUDEPICTURE not working

M

max

Like S Vassmer's posting of yesterday, I am trying to
include picture (bitmap) files in a mail merge.

I have noticed some odd behavior of the {INCLUDEPICTURE }
field code. If I insert it manually using ctrl-f9 to
place the brackets and typing the field codes, no picture
is inserted and no blank picture placeholer is inserted.

If I use Insert>Field from the menu and have Word place
the field code, the picture is inserted. However, when I
do this and later edit the field to select another
picture (or use a MergeField for the picture name) the
original picture is still inserted. Word is placing some
kind of link in that is not dynamic and is independent of
the field codes. Any ideas?

I am using Word 2000.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!
