Angry Using IncludePicture and MailMerge to insert picture

Hello,
I am working on this project in which I am trying to create a directory of all the members of a club. I have been able to make all fields work but the picture. Whatever I do, I keep getting an error message "The linked image cannot be displayed. The file might have been moved, renamed, or deleted. Verify that the link points to the correct file and location."

The strange thing is that the field works when I format it this way:

INCLUDEPICTURE "C:\\Users\\Elena\\Pictures\\Ivonne.png"

But when I add the MergeField function, it give me the error message:

INCLUDEPICTURE "C:\\Users\\Elena\\Pictures\\{Mergefield \“Picture\”}.png"

In the datasource for the MergeField, the column with the header "Picture" has the name of the file. For example, it would have Ivonne following the example described above.

Any help you can provide would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
