Default Using as secured Access database as the data source for a mail mer

I have a mail merge document that utilized data from a query in MS Access. I
recently upgraded to Access 2002 and the database security was set up using
the security wizard. Now, I can no longer use the mail merge document to
open the data source. I'm given a message that says Word is unable to open
the data source? Is there any way to fix this?

Hi ?B?Q2FybWluZQ==?=,

I have a mail merge document that utilized data from a query in MS Access. I
recently upgraded to Access 2002 and the database security was set up using
the security wizard. Now, I can no longer use the mail merge document to
open the data source. I'm given a message that says Word is unable to open
the data source? Is there any way to fix this?

I'm not familiar with the Security Wizard in Access, I've only ever chosen to
save the database with a password, or to activate the full security (user
managment, with logins and passwords). Does what you now have follow either of
those patterns, or is it something totally different? And are you using Word
2002, now, as well? If not, which version?
