Thanks again, Paul, for your help.

I tried to keep it simple.

My Excel data sheet has headings:

"Picture" for the combined path and picture filename. The first entry below the header is "C:\\Documents and Settings\\John\\My Documents\\FPC\\Directory\\DirectoryPhotos\\Abels_ Jon_1011_DSCF2804r.jpg", with quotes.

"Filename". The first entry is Abels_Jon_1011_DSCF2804r.jpg, no quotes.

"Caption". The first entry is Jon and Lily Abels, no quotes.

The first cell in the Word document contains the following:

{ INCLUDEPICTURE { MERGEFIELD “Picture” } \* MERGEFORMAT }
{ MERGEFIELD “Filename” }
{ MERFIELD “Caption” }
{ NEXT }

I press <Alt + F9> and get

Error! Filename not specified.
Abels_Jon_1011_DSCF2804r.jpg
Jon and Lily Abels

I must be overlooking something.
