Greetings--

My goal is to edit address label information I entered several years ago and
display it in table form to print (and eventually make labels--but I can do
that part).

Here's what I tried, and it didn't work.
I just edited what I thought was my source data (Mail merge recipients
list/edit which gave me a data form and I edited and added new entries)--in a
file I had named 2003 source data. I renamed the file to 2009 source data
after adding my new info. Apparently I saved it wrong, or I was not really
doing what I thought, since after closing the document and re-opening it,
none of the changes were there. So here are my questions, since my original
2003 data is still somewhere.

Oh--whenever I try to view the data source using the toolbar button, I'm
taken to MY DATA SOURCES, which has links to a wizard or wants me to connect
to an external db.

1) Where is this data and how is it named? Is it in a magic blank Word doc
(such as the one I named 2009 source data) and then somehow associated with
the document? (Since I see nothing on the screen, but I'm able to click the
Mail Merge Recipients button).

2) If I open this file again and add info, how do I save it? Renaming it
caused me some kind of problem, probably because the data was linked to some
other file.

3) How can I get it to display in a word doc, table form. It's been
years.... for some reason I think I did a merge, and then chose some option
for a table perhaps?

I'm great at Word, but somehow this merge function really seems to baffle me!!

Hope you can help... (or perhaps I should switch to doing this in Excel??)

Thanks!
