I'm using mail merge in MS Word to send out a bunch of emails.  Each
email needs to contain a unique URL (from my datasource).  My word doc
is in HTML.  I can easily replace the displayed text with the mail
merge fields, but I cannot figure out how to replace the href text
with info from my datasource.  For example, I need to have a mail
merge field in <a href='http://<<MAILMERGEFIELD>>.com'>Link</a>

Hello zman771,

Thank you for your question.

Mail merges can be a real pain; there is one website I use a lot for
this type of thing. One website has helped me many times when I have
had this type of problem.

Visit this website:

Mail Merge Tutorial

That should give you a complete run down of everything you need to know
relevant to your problem.

If you need any additional clarification, let me know and I'll be glad
to assist you.
