I support this suggestion... it's sometimes easier to work with just one
application than to learn how to connect/communicate between different
applications. VB is fairly easy, and typing Google will be your friend
(Word VB +your problem should have plenty of solutions!). You can dump
your text + img in different folder (or just files), then have the VB
application identify the data available, load the text, load the images,
save, next. Ah, and by doing it this way, you can create your template
"by hand", you don't have to code it from scratch...
