In my Computer Magic! seminar at the Affordable Meetings conference, several attendees wanted to know how to send an attachment when they send a mail merge email.
The bad news is that you can’t with the native Outlook program.
But, the good news is that you can purchase an inexpensive add-in ($24.00) that will make this easy (if you’re on a company network, check with your IT administrator before you attempt to download anything to your work computer).

Somewhere along the way as you start the merge, you may get a message about a program trying to send email on your behalf…You can avoid this happening by downloading the “Express ClickYes” utility that is available as a free download from http://www.contextmagic.com/express-clickyes/
“Express ClickYes is a tiny program that sits in the taskbar and clicks the Yes button on behalf of you, when Outlook’s Security Guard opens a prompt dialog saying that a program is trying to send an email with Outlook or access its address book. You can suspend/resume it by double-clicking its taskbar icon.”
