Default Cannot edit Excel file with Word document open

In Office2003, I cannot open and edit my Excel database that I have linked to
a Word document in mail merge; it opens as read-only. I previously could
open/edit/save and then simply rerun my merge in Word. Is there a workaround
to this feature, or am I missing something? Thank you!
