Please close all other software before running OMMA.

Is it possible that you have another window open which prevents the script from opening the email?.

OMMA takes a 5 seconds break after each 50 emails.

OMMA runs on Microsoft Windows and not on a Mac.

Please minimize all windows when OMMA seems to stop right after the welcome message.

Sometimes, the 'Attach file' dialog is hidden behind another window.

Was outlook open when running OMMA? (It should be open).

For Outlook 2003, OMMA is known to fail when MS Word is set as email editor, instead of Outlook's internal editor.

OMMA does not work when the spell-check is configured to give a pop-up message before sending an email.

Outlook must be configured such that no messages pop-up when one presses the 'Send' button in the Outlook email message window.

A error will occur when the OMMA script is not able to open the emails in the outbox and to activate (give focus to) the window with the email.

After attaching the file to the email in the outbox, it opens the emails one by one and types ALT+S, which is the keystroke to send an email. To send you emails, you simply set Outlook to work Online again. Then you run the script, 'outlook mail merge attachment.vbs', which adds an attachment to all emails in the Outbox.

All merged emails are now stored in the Outlook Outbox. Then you perform the mail merge using Microsoft Word as you are used to. First, you set Microsoft Outlook to work offline, this way the emails are stored in the Outbox but not actually send. Outlook Mail Merge Attachment supplies mail merge process in Microsoft Office Word and Outlook with the functionality to add an attachment.
