I believe I solved my issue, and the way to do it was basically to create a table of 2 cells (not create 2 separate cells), and then populate the first cell with the photo info, and the second cell would have the personal information. I have used different variations of this command, I've put the paths in the Excel sheet in between double quotes yet still the problem remains.Īs soon as I try to change the layout of the photos so that the fields are displayed to the right of it, only the first image in the list comes through. In the document itself I use with Photos being the name of the field in Excel containing the path. I have tried saving the document and then pressing F9, tried saving it to XML as some have suggested then refreshing but no luck, it stays with only the first image being copied throughout. What happens is, only the first image gets pulled through, and it gets copied over to all the other labels (even when showing their different ID's in the labels, it's always the first image that gets copied throughout). However, it's when I try to position the image in a square layout -so that the data fields appear alongside the image on a label -as opposed to under it- that the process breaks down. The images themselves can merge just fine if brought alone, showing different images in different labels as desired.
