-From 2.23.1+ it is alos possible to send an ad hoc image to all recipients in your selection, this can be useful for sending marketing information that has been created as an image rather than a word document.  If set up by your system administrator a new button will appear in the notification allowing you to browse your computer for an image to include in all notifications. \\ \\
+Images can be included in the notification template by including something like <img width=300 class="center" src="file:///C:\IQX\Reports\logo.jpg"/> where you can set the file location and the name of the image.  If you are an IQXAnywhere client then you need to include something like <img width= "739" height= "623" style= "width:7.7in;height:6.4916in" src="https://pizza.iqxanywhere.net/assets/logo.jpg"> instead of the file path you use the web location.  You will also need to upload the file to Email, Web Report Images and rebuild Web once it has been uploaded.

 ===== Custom Merge Fields =====
 Some custom merge fields should ONLY be used in notifications (for example some HTML coding), there is now a Notifications Only tick box in Maintenance – Database Set Up – Custom Word Merge Fields.  If ticked the fields will not be available for adding to a document template, they will be accessible under the [Special] header in Notifications. \\ \\
+If using a custom merge fields that requires the information to be over multiple lines e.g. address in a block then the merge field will need to be amended to replace the carriage returns with HTML breaks.  This needs to be in the custom merge field and the _literal_ needs to be the first part:
+ string('_literal_',
+replace( Item to be Replaced)  endif, string(char(13), char(10)), '<br/>'))
