MergeImageFieldEventArgs.FieldValue is null while executing MailMerge

Hello,

I’m using the Mail merge engine to generate a document from a docx template. 

I was first using:

Doc.MailMerge.Execute(myDataTable);

And everything was working fine.


But since I only have one row in my table, I used this method:

Doc.MailMerge.Execute(myFieldNames, myFieldValues);

Now in my MergeImageFieldEventHandler, my MergeImageFieldEventArgs FiledValues are null for the Image FieldName.


Is MergeImageFieldEventHandler not entirely compatible with this execution of MailMerge ?

Hello,

Thank you for your answer, I made a sample exposing my problem:

I took yours and add a field in the form letting you chose between MailMErge using FieldNames & FieldValues or using a DataTable.

As you will see, when using a DataTable the MergeImageFieldEventHandler is fine, but when using FieldNames and FieldValue the MergeImageFieldEventHandler throw an error.

This is due to the fact that the MergeImageFieldEventArgs.FiledValue is null when executing a MailMerge with FieldNames and FiledValues, but i don't understand why.

Thank you for your time.
