Importing and Appending data from an HTML file to a mail merged worddocument

[TTurner]

I am creating a mail merge word document and would like to append our
company's email signature file to the end of the word document. The
email signature is an HTML file located on the local machine.

Customers will be using a web based application that creates the mail
merged document for them and then automatically emails the document to
a third party. We are trying to automate the import of the signature
HTML file into word for the customer using the program at the time.
Therefore pulling their signature file from their windows profile on
the PC.

I have been trying to get the following to work but have not had any
luck. Does anyone have any ideas of how I can get this to work?

{ INCLUDETEXT "C:\\Documents and Settings\tturner\\Application Data\
\Microsoft\\Signatures\\tturner.html" }

Thanks

When posting code, it's *critical* that you do a direct cut/paste of
the line that fails. If that is indeed what you did, my suggestion
would be to doublecheck to be sure all your backslashes are doubled up.
That seems to work for me, if I create the field as outlined here:

If you didn't cut/paste your code directly into your post, I don't know
enough about Word to suggest what else may be fouled up.
