Default Why can't Word initiate DDE link with Excel in mail merge?

I use Word 2000 for mail merge frequently. Lately when trying to merge a
spreadsheet from Excel into a form letter it just runs and runs and won't
finish "initiating the DDE link". I receive the Excel spreadsheets, via
email attachment, from another person who may be using Office 2003. My
operating system is XP.
