Hi, I'm trying to produce a mailmerge labels (biz cards for badges) but
when I select the data - in whatever format, csv, db3, excel 2000,
excel 5 - word hangs. I've tried creating a test databse with 5
records, same result. Whats going wrong?

Hard to say what is wrong at this point, but clear the decks with
http://www.gmayor.com/what_to_do_when_word_crashes.htm
run Detect & repair from the help menu, then the troubleshooting tips at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...peningWord.htm finally see
http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm ,
http://www.gmayor.com/graphics_on_labels.htm and

Perhaps Word is having a bad month. I would do Word troubleshooting:
