Mailmerge images stored in Access as OLE Objects

I need to do a mailmerge in word with a different employee photo per record, but I don't have access to the original images, but they're in an Access database table stored as OLE Objects. Is it possible to link the Mailmerge to them, or extract these embedded photos to a shared drive so I can include them in the mailmerge?

...but the simulated mail merge requires some additional work on your part...

So try extracting the images to a disk file, ...then use a system like the attached db to "Link" to the images.
