I am trying to mailmerge labels from an excel workbook. I've done this a
hundred times but for some reason the last time I tried everything went fine until I tried to select my source. I found my source in my documents, opened it, selected the worksheet and then this dialog box showed up asking me to select a table. I've never seen this box before and I tried selecting the source again but then it tells me it cannot find my source!? What is going on? I am so confused, help! Thank you! |

Possibly, since you last did it, under ToolsOptionsGeneral, you have
checked the box against the "Confirm conversions at open" item. If that is the case, try unchecking it and then try and attach the data source and see if things return to what is normal for you. -- Hope this helps.

I am having the same problem. The "confirm conversions at open" item is not
checked. My worksheet has multiple tabs. If I select one of the tabs, then I am asked again to select a table. The only thing showing is the column header of the first column. When I select that, only 3 fields are shown in the mail merge recipient list. How do I get it to show the rest of the fields (city, state, zip)?
