Hi

I am using Doug Robbins' MVP email merge with attachments solution for

Outlook using VBA.

http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MailMerge/MergeWithAttachments.htm

All works fine unitl the actual merge to the addresses where Outlook seems

to be interfering and entering email addresses for some of the contacts

rather than using the addresses specified in Dougs' solution. Not sure but it

seems like the addressesit's picking on are for people for whom I hal;ready

have contact data in Outlook. Problem is, there is often a mismatrch of email

data between Outlook and speciifed list for merge-home vs work, outdated etc.

Can you override Outlook input in this regard somehow?

As this problem seems to be specific to your data, I'd suggest that you

focus your attention there. In other words, what are the actual values

you're seeing for Datarange when it's used to set the value of the To

property? I suspect that will reveal what the problem might be.

Thanks Sue, will check this out - once I've figured out what it means! :-)
