Default Insert merge fields button doesn't show fields.

Hi.

A colleague has got a strange problems that's just occurred.

He is using a network database as the source, and when creating a
merge, the "Insert merge fields" option does not bring down the list
of fields.

The weird thing is, trying this on another PC in the office with
exactly the same datasource works fine (the datasource has previously
been used on PC number 1 without problem).

To make things slightly worse, setting up a mail merge from scratch on
PC number 1, creating a word document table as the datasource, again
the "Insert merge fields" option does nothing.


Is there anything that might be worth checking ?
