Hi Cassie,
I wanted to generate a Letter as Word
Document (it is using for posting the letter to cust.) with MailMerge
information. Currently we are having a Intranet (Browser based) system
where we open a word document in browser but which doesn't work good for us
becasue the customer photo's are out of proportion sometimes becasue of the
scaning or size of the photo. I know that this can be sold by using a MailMerge
technique in word. I have read an article on Macromedia that it can be done
using COM objects but i don't know how to do it ...I also want the option to
create an individual letter for the customer or bluk letter for the group
of customer by selecting a customer_ID.
Thank you
Samir

You have a couple of options. You can use a
program like www.sunacommunications.com to do
your emails - the advantage this way is lots of tracking and reporting as well
as full flexibility with the look and feel and full
personalisation.
Or you can do a query based cfmail.
<cfquery name=Myquery">
query to get customer info
with fields like
select email, firstname,
lastname
</cfquery>
<cfmail from="me" query="MyQuery" to="#email#"
subject="my subject">
Hi #firstname# #lastname#,
this is my letter
</cfmail>
Or, if you want the content of the letter to also
be completely dynamic, you'll need to explicitly replace instances of
"#firstname#" etc. with the merged value for each recipient.
Good luck,
Cassie
