Mail Merge Picture Error

I am attempting to create a directory using mail merge in order to achieve the following outcome:

The following is the setup for my directory mail merge:
img-2.png

Upon completing mail merge, saving and re-opening the file, I discover the following error:
“The linked image cannot be displayed. The file may have been moved, renamed or deleted. Verify that the link points to the correct file and location.”

I located the following assistance after searching for a resolution: (link to source here)

I substituted my original picture code above with the following code suggested from source as such:
img-5.png

The images remain after saving and re-opening file, no errors with missing image link, but the format I desire regarding image size does not remain. I would like for the image to hold its size like in the 1st image above.

Can someone advise here, thanks.

To control the image size, you can insert the mergefield into a single-cell table to which you apply a fixed row height and column width:
• For the rows, set the exact row height under Table Tools>Layout>Properties>Row>Specify Height>Exactly.
• For the columns, set the preferred column width under Table Tools>Layout>Properties>Columns and uncheck the 'automatically resize to fit contents' option under Table Tools>Layout>Properties>Table>Options.
