DOCPROPERTY after Merge

[1960JCAP]

I have this custom property in my document:
custom --> "c:\\logo.jpg"

and I have this command before merge:
{INCLUDEPICTURE "{DOCPROPERTY custom}" \d \* MERGERFORMAT}

After merge I have in the new document:
{INCLUDEPICTURE "c:\\logo.jpg" \d \* MERGERFORMAT}

But, I need keep the original command after merge because the "custom"
property is variable. I want merge the MERGEFIELD field of a source data but
no the DOCPROPERTY field.

Is possible? Any idea? Very thanks for help.

The trouble is that the merge process tries to resolve as many fields as
possible, with a few exceptions. No way is provided to say "don't resolve
this field type". So the only suggestions I can make are:
a. use VBA to re-insert the appropriate DOCPROPERTY field where necessary
b. put your { DOCPROPERTY } field in a separate document (probably just for
use with this particular mailmerge main document) and use soemthing like

{ INCLUDEPICTURE "{ INCLUDETEXT docpropfield.doc }" \d }

You may need to select the field in docpropfield.doc and create a bookmark,
e.g. called bodytext, then use

{ INCLUDEPICTURE "{ INCLUDETEXT docpropfield.doc bodytext }" \d }

to avoid inserting the included document's end-of-document marker.
