OK, I see what's happening now - the FILENAME field is being converted to its results before the INCLUDETEXT field gets to evaluate the field expression. I guess that rules out using the INCLUDETEXT field in this situation. Cross-referenced bookmarks in the data source don't seem to work, either. In that case, you'll have to either:
• add the required columns to your data file so the mailmerge can reference them; or
• forego the conventional mailmerge process and drive it all with a macro instead.
