I'm trying to do a BCM Marketing Campaign of an article I wrote, distributed

by Outlook email, with a mailmerge letter in Word for the cover letter and a

> .pdf attached file for the article. In other words, I need the following

elements:

1. Cover email personalized with Dear <<first>> as the salutation;

2. Distributed via BCM Marketing Campaign function so I can automate sending

and track results;

3. Attached file on each email.

It seems that when I use the Outlook delivery method I can attach the file

but cannot customize the salutation line.

But when I use the Word mailmerge delivery method I can customize the

salutation but cannot attach a file to the email.

How do I solve this?

Thank you.
 
Ok, no answers. Do I have to sign up or pay a membership fee to get an

answer on this board? But I found a script called Outlook Mail Merge

Attachment.vbs that works fine.
 
This is the most ridiculous catch 22 I've ever come across.

i specifically use outlook and NOT Thunderbird because of the business

contact manager, but this one simple yet crucial item, no one has an answer

on how to solve.
