I merge Word documents often with my Access database. Sometimes when I open
a Merged document, it automatically re-connects with the data source.
However, more often, it does not and I have to point it to the database and
then the specific table or query even though I made no changes from the prior
time I opened the same document. Any suggestions to make the document always
reconnect to the established data source?

Which version of Word/Access, and how is Word connecting to Access (if you
don't know that answer to the latter question, don't worry).
