Hi Albert,

Hi, is it possible mail merge with microsoft Word for images that were saved
in Sql Server (image format)?

No, it is not. There are only two ways to merge pictures:

1) They're stored in a Word table, and the Word table is the data source

2) They're stored as files on disk, and the data source contains the file name
(or the full path). Instructions for how to set up the main merge document are
in the mail merge FAQ on my website.
