You can either re-apply the old converter (removed by the up to date
patching) which is linked from the downloads page of my web site, or you
could take a look at the Excel data section of

Using Office 2003 on a XP pro machine. Both are patched and up to
date. When trying to use mail merge to create mailing labels, the
Word merge operation doesn't find any of the data in the Excel wks.

The second phase of the merge operation is to define a data source. I
change the bottom look up parameter to "Excel File" and click on the
Excel file I want to use. Next step is to select the source sheet in
the wks. file (MS call is a "Table"). after clicking as needed. The
merge doesn't find any data.

The excell file is proplerly configured and was used regularly with MS
Office 2000 with out issue.

Thanks and have a good holiday season!
