I don't know what you're doing wrong since, path & mergefield names aside, those instructions produce exactly the same mergefield as you'll find in the document I gave you.

As I said in post #9, the Mailmerge Tips and Tricks 'Sticky' thread at the top of this forum also includes a macro for converting the 'text' versions of the field codes to working ones. Indeed, to produce the field in the attachment to post #13, all I did was to copy the corresponding 'field code' from the Mailmerge Tips and Tricks 'Sticky' thread, edit the path & mergefield names to match yours, then run the macro against it!
