Default Word not allowing 2 documents to access data source at same time

Previously I have been able to open up 2 separate documents at the same time
that take their data from a common Excel file.

As of this week I get a pop-up that says:
This file is in use.
Enter a new name or close the file that's open in another program.

I am using Windows 7 and Office 2007.
