Mailmerge only merges picture from 1st record, can anyone help?

[Thulo Shrestha]

I have individual pictures in a folder in .jpg format. The data source table
(MS Access Table) contains a field that has path and file information about
these pictures, e.g., "c:\\mydocument\\myphoto\\1.jpg". I set up the
mailmerge main document with the merge fields and inserting the "Inlcude
Picture" field and nesting the path and file information field within
"Include Picture" field as follows:

{INCLUDE PICTURE {MERGEFIELD "Field4"} \*MERGEFORMAT}

I tried to execute the mailmerge, but the only picture from the first record
appears in all the form letters. Can anyone help me how I can merge all
these individual pictures?

This is normal behaviour. Merge to a new document, select all (CTRL+A) then
F9 to update. Or you could create and use the update macro shown at
