You are not missing anything that all other users of Word 2003 are missing
to a greater or lesser extent. I you want to edit the data source, in your
case, use Excel.

I am using Office 2003 - when I merge with an Excel database, and then go
to
the Mail Merge Recipients to edit it, the Edit button is greyed out. Am I
missing something?

Any advice appreciated.
