Default Mail merge using Excel won't recognise one sheet

I am trying to create labels from an Excel workbook with several sheets. this
has worked fine in the past, but now word will not recognise the one sheet
which contains the addresses. other sheets are recognised fine. what could
be different? no filters applied, no print areas, but the sheet shows twice
on the list of sheets. tried changing the name to no avail. any suggestions?
Thanks.

Default Mail merge using Excel won't recognise one sheet

1. Which version of Word and Excel?

2. Is the workbook open or closed when you try to connect to it?

3. Is one sheet name like the other but with a "_" at the end? If so, try
using the one without the "_". otherwise, can you please state what the
sheet names are that you see when you select the sheet.

no filters applied, no print areas


have you /ever/ applied any of these in this workbook?
