Default Cannot use querry from Access in Word

Do what Doug says re. confirm conversions, then select the DDE option

Open the query in Access and then use the Merge it with Microsoft Word
facility available by going to the Tools menu in Access and then selecting
Office Links and then Merge it with Microsoft Word.

I have a querry in Microsoft Access which I want to use in a Microsoft
Word mail merge, but the querry does not display in Word. (Microsoft
Office 2003).
