I'm wondering if it's possible and how to make a mail merge where a field is an image.

i'm using word 2007 document converted in 2000 and on the .mdb datasource i add an ole field.

but when i mail merge i get System.Drawing.Bitmap instead of the image

instead of use a dataread i'm using :

Dim table As DataTable = New DataTable("Test")

dim FIRMA_IMG as system.drawing.bitmap

do

table.Rows.Add(New Object() {MITTENTE, MITTENTE_2, FIRMA_IMG})

loop

doc.MailMerge.ExecuteWithRegions(table)

in this way i'm getting the same input document with all merge field empty

Thank you for additional information. I cannot reproduce the problem on my side using the latest version of Aspose.Words (8.2.1). You can download this version from here:

Also, see the following link to find one more example:
