MailMerge with Variable InlineShape

[Alex St-Pierre]

Hi Jean-Guy,
The InlineShape is /Insert/Object/Microsoft Graph (Type: Sector (circle))
with Office 2003.
I'm wondering what is the best way to work with a mailmerge and a graph. If
I merge one by one, I can modify the word document between each record but
I'll have too much word files. If the graph is depending of mergefield, it
should be fine (could merge 100 records each time and save the file) but Word
doesn't seems to allow that. Is there a possibility to merge record one by
one and put all the output inside one file?
Thank you!
Alex

Instead of merging to a letter type, use the "Directory" type (Used to be
"Catalogue"). You can tweak your code to do one Directory merge per 100
records.
