This would indicate that you are only previewing the results and have not
actually executed the merge to a new document.

I am using Word's mail merge to input data from an Excel spreadsheet. Once
I
complete the merge, the results appear in my document, but are highlighted
in
grey. It's like mail merge forgot to get rid of the highlights. How can
I
fix this?
