Download the MergeTools – 20120609 Add-in that I created from the following page of my Windows Live SkyDrive:

https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=5aedcb43615e886b#cid=5AEDCB43615E886B&id=5AEDCB43615E886B%21111

and also the Mail Merging with Charts document that is also on that page.  That document explains how you must set up the Excel Data Source and the Mail Merge Main document to be able to execute a merge with a Chart that is unique to each record in the data source.

    I am having the exact same problem. Doug, could you just explain how to fix this? I don't have all my data yet, but would still like to create a test file that works.

    Thanks!

    Lisa,

     

    In David's case, the bookmark "Chart" was not correctly defined in the mail merge main document.

     

    If you want to send your files to me, I will take a look at them.

    Hi Doug,

    I have been successful with having the chart merge work for the chart but the additional merge fields in the document are being populated with "Error! No Document variable supplied."... eventhough they are visible and populated correctly when previewing results.

    Suggestions appreciated.

    Thank you,

    Judiann
