Default Macro execution using MailMerge

I can't really imagine the circumstance under which I would bother with a
macro to set up a mailmerge main document, but none the less, without seeing
you code it is somewhat hard to tell what is causing the problem, though the
most likely thing is that the mailmerge main document is not, or is not
being recognised as, a label type mailmerge main document.

I have converted a Word 2000 macro over to Word 2003 and recorded a Word
macro to perform a mail merge from a six(6) column table contained in a
Word
document. Recording and saving the mail merge steps goes ok ( I used the
'Address Block' format for my lables.)
However, when I execute the macro, the process abends with a MS Visual
Basic
run-time error " '509' This command is not available". Clicking on debug
shows me that the macro abended on the line that is calling the

WordBasic.MailMergePropagateLabel routine.

I have looked everywhere for a solution to this abend. I have gone back
into
my install of Office 2003 and added in any and all "pieces / parts" of
Word
and Office that might have anything to do with Visual Basic, but the macro
always fails. I have a feeling I am missing something in the Office
install,
but can not determine what else could be causing this error. Any
assistance
/ suggestions are appreciated. J Nelson.
