Default word 2003 mail merge filter problems

Recently switched to word 2003/office xp. When mail merging in word, filters
sometimes work. At other times although the filter appears to bring up the
correct recipients in the box, when these are merged to a new document all
records are merged not just those filtered. When I go back to check the
filter it has added additional lines in - although these would not always
result in the document which is created. Problems seem particularly bad with
negative filters - "not blank", "not equal to". Have tried using access and
excel as data sources with same effect. Had no problems before office
upgrade.

Any ideas?
