Default Merge Excel Data Base to Word Template

Using Office 2003. The merge does not recognize the column Headings in
Excel. I am creating a directory. I have done others and cannot figure out
what is wrong.

Default Merge Excel Data Base to Word Template

1. Are the column headings in regular Excel cells?

2. Does every column have a heading?

3. Are the headings in row 1 of the sheet? (perhaps you hid row 1 and there
is nothing in it?
