Default MS Word Mail Merge from Excel -- Force Excel to open the datafile?

Does it connect if the Excel file is in the same folder as the merge
document or in the My Data Sources folder?

More info.. switched from Office 2000 to Office XP. It seems that
documents created in Office 2000 automatically open the Excel data
source. In Office XP, it seems that the data source does not load
automatically.

Anyone else encounter this? Any solutions?
