Default Waiting for Microsoft Excel to accept DDE Commands


Mail merge hangs on opening source document (Named range in Excel
Spreadsheet)

Status bar displays the following messagaes....
Opening Source Document
Starting Excel
Waiting for Microsoft Excel to accept DDE Commands
Opening Data File
Requesting Query information from Microsoft Excel

When the system hangs, it does so during the third step - Waiting for
Microsoft Excel to accept DDE Commands. The dark blue bar at the top of
the
screen turns into a faded blue bar. .

I have tried many things but nothing has worked so far.

Any suggestons? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
