Attach document to mail merge outlook 2010

To attach a document to a mail merge in Outlook 2010, you'll need to use a combination of Outlook's mail merge feature and Word's document attachment feature. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you achieve this:

Prerequisites:

  1. You have Outlook 2010 installed on your computer.
  2. You have a Word document (.docx) that you want to attach to the mail merge.
  3. You have a list of recipients in Outlook that you want to send the merged documents to.

Step 1: Create a new mail merge in Outlook

  1. Open Outlook 2010 and go to the "Mail" tab.
  2. Click on the "New Email" button to create a new email message.
  3. In the "To" field, select the list of recipients you want to send the merged documents to.
  4. Click on the "Insert Merge Field" button in the "Tags" group to insert a merge field for the recipient's name, email address, or other fields.

Step 2: Create a Word document template

  1. Open Word 2010 and create a new document.
  2. Design the document as you would like it to appear when merged with the recipient's information.
  3. Insert merge fields for the recipient's information using the "Insert Merge Field" button in the "Tags" group.
  4. Save the document as a Word document (.docx) with a name like "Merge Template.docx".

Step 3: Attach the Word document template to the mail merge

  1. Go back to the Outlook email message you created in Step 1.
  2. Click on the "Attach File" button in the "Include" group.
  3. Browse to the location where you saved the Word document template (Merge Template.docx).
  4. Select the file and click "Open" to attach it to the email message.

Step 4: Merge the document and attach it to the email

  1. Click on the "Merge" button in the "Tags" group to merge the document with the recipient's information.
  2. Outlook will create a new document for each recipient, using the merge fields you inserted in the Word document template.
  3. Each merged document will be attached to the email message as a separate file.

Step 5: Send the merged documents

  1. Click on the "Send" button to send the email message with the attached merged documents to each recipient.

That's it! You have successfully attached a document to a mail merge in Outlook 2010.
