Mail Merge with MS word and OLE objects

[Mutdogus]

I have a form that I let users insert screen shots as OLE objects that I later need to print from a word document.

I have used the Mail merge option to insert the pictures into the document. However I get the error "Long binary or text value."

I've searched the MSDN site and found a work around.

Here it is.

However I'm not saving the files to the network or to a local disk. Anybody have any ideas on how to save the files so they can be called via this workaround or an alternative.

Most of the screenshots are screen shots of a website, but some are PDF files and others are from a program running in a UNIX shell so and I don't think you can use OLE automation with UNIX shell programs, and I'm pretty sure nobody has written a library for this application.

Thanks.
