Default Word Mail-Merge with .xls but sent to 'Contacts'

I tested usuing Contacts to enter data and tested it with 3 entries. Chose
to use Excel instead, but Word now traps me back to 'Contacts'. Does it
record somewhere to always use contacts, can I change it???

Open the mail merge main document and link it to the Excel file and then
save it.
