If as you said, "Letter does not necessarily need to be personalised", then why do you need mailmerge? You may just send email from Word, like:

*------------------------
oWord.documents.add
with oWord.ActiveDocument.MailEnvelope.Item
             .Attachments.Add(fullpath_doc_file)
               .Recipients.Add(.......)
                .Send
endwith
.......

And if you need mailmerge, then here is an example as it is seen in Word VBA Help:
*-------------------------------------
MailAsAttachment Property
True if the merge documents are sent as attachments when the mail merge destination is an e-mail message or a fax. Read/write Boolean.

expression.MailAsAttachment

expression Required. An expression that returns a MailMerge object.

Example
This example performs a mail merge operation and sends the merge results as attachments to e-mail messages. The e-mail addresses are stored in the MailAddress merge field.

With Documents("Main.doc").MailMerge
.MailAsAttachment = True
.Destination = wdSendToEmail
.MailSubject = "Special offer"
.MailAddressFieldName = "MailAddress"
.Execute
End With

*-------------------------------------

Good Luck
