How-to Mail Merge with an attachment?

[BobN]

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.
