Paul,

Your form works very well, but I can't reproduce it.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong...

I found another one of you posts on a different forum.

"For example, take the first scenario (one of the most complex) from my first post:
• Position the insertion point where you want the image to appear and press Ctrl-F9 three times to produce three nested fields, thus { { { } } }.
• fill in the fields so you get {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "C:\Users\My Document Path\Pictures\"} \d}, keeping the spaces where indicated.
• insert the mergefield for the image names, thus {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "C:\Users\My Document Path\Pictures\«Image»"} \d}.
• Select the fields & copy them to the clipboard.
• Press Ctrl-F9 to wrap the existing fields in another field, thus { {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "C:\Users\My Document Path\Pictures\«Image»"} \d} }.
• Type 'IF' inside the left-most field brace, keping the space to the right of the 'IF' and paste the clipboard content inside the right field brace, keeping the space to the left of where you paste (the pasted field quite possibly won't be visible You should now see:
{IF {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "C:\Users\My Document Path\Pictures\«Image»"} \d} }
or:
{IF {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "C:\Users\My Document Path\Pictures\«Image»"} \d} {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "C:\Users\My Document Path\Pictures\«Image»"} \d}}.
• Select the whole field and press F9 (this step is optional).
• Run your mailmerge.
A comprehensive, relatively simple and reliable solution that does not require manual intervention after every mailmerge."

I've tried to do it like that exactly.

Can you help bring some color to what I could possibly be doing wrong?
