Default Word 2007 - "word was unable to open the data source"

This is the only error I get when trying to open an excel data source in Word
2007 mailmerge document. This is a Vista Enterprise 64 system - the same
document and spreadsheet works fine on my Win XP Pro 64 system...

The spreadsheet is a simple single sheet workbook with 10 columns and 9
rows, although I have tried it with more complex multi-sheet workbooks, with
the same results. In fact, I can't get it to open ANY kind of data source.

Any ideas?

Hopefully,
Tom
