Default Issue with inserting an Access database to Word

I'm attempting to insert a shared Access database into Word using the Word
"Insert Database" tool.

I select the database query to run from, limit the fields, and insert the
data - then I get an hourglass for a bit and when that's done I get
nothing... not even an error message. There is data in the fields I'm pulling
(I double-checked).

The Word document at that point acts like I've changed it (requests a save
on close), but there is no data on the screen.

This process works when I create a local copy of the database that no other
user is in, but not when I use the shared database on our server. Is this a
known issue with permissions? Or is there a work-around that I'm missing?
