Hi ?B?U1RFVkU=?=,

I want to insert data from excel 97 to word 97 via mail merge.
When I try to "get Data", it says: "Word unable to open the data source"

At what point in working under "Get Data" do you see this message? Please
describe the exact steps you're going through, here. Also, are you
choosing a particular connection method (DDE, ODBC, spreadsheet
converter)?
