Default Word 2003 merge data source Excel Ques

I am doing a mail merge with a Word letter and Excel data source. It worked
fine until I decided to add another field. But the new field will not show up
in the merge.
It is on the spreadsheet but not move over to datasource dialogue box. I'm
missing something. What steps are different than Word 2000?

Re-attach the data source from the mail merge toolbar.

See http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm which explains
the use of the toolbar.
