linking a document in Worrd

[smsinger3]

Hello all.

I am linking documents together using Insert/File/Link. The Word field is {INCLUDETEXT...} . When I move these documents to another person's computer, the file names still point to the old directory. Is it possible to change the "default" directory to the directory where the master document is? I could re-link them all, but there is about 40 documents! It would be VERY helpful!

Your help is certainly appreciated!

Hi Steve -

I was hoping maybe you could assist me. I am trying to insert a signature into a word mail merge document - Actually, it is two signatures and I am using an if statement to insert the signatures depending on another field. However, I cannot get it to work.

The signature file is saved under My Documents - This is what I have in the field:

{if { MERGEFIELD Sales_Mgr}=
Mike""{INCLUDETEXT C:\\ Signature - Torrese.doc}" "Not Mike"}

Any idea on what I am doing wrong??? Thanks!!!

I've never done anyting like this, but it seems to me that syntax may be wrong. Should it be something like this:

{if { MERGEFIELD Sales_Mgr}=
"Mike" ", {INCLUDETEXT C:\\ Signature - Torrese.doc}" , "Not Mike"}
