Well, I didn't see Chris's answer, which is better, when I sent this.
Never-mind!!!

        Hi Linda,
         
        This is from one of the Word 2003 e-books I have:
         
        "You can display the Match Fields dialog box in several
different ways: 
        . Click the Match Fields button on the Mail Merge toolbar. 
        . Click the Match Fields button in the Insert Address Block
dialog box. 
        Match 
        Fields . Click the Match Fields button in the Greeting Line
dialog box. 
        Tell Word how to match fields by clicking the arrow of the field
you want to match. For example, 
        if in your database file you have all addresses listed as
Address Line 2, but in your Address 
        List in the merge procedure you want it to be shown as Address
Line 1, you can click the 
        Address Line 1 arrow (shown in Figure 30-12) and select Address
Line 2. When you select 
        Address Line 2, Word places in Address Line 1 any data it finds
tagged for Address Line 2. 
        After you make your matches, click OK to close the dialog box
and return to the document. "
        
        It sounds like there is an arrow next to each of the original
fields, which you must click before you can choose a matching field from
the list.
         
        hth,
         
        Chip

                Hello Listers
                A client needs to use mail merge w/ Jaws.  She has
version 8 of Jaws and using Word 2003.  We cannot get the pull down list
boxes in the Match Fields Dialog box to open so that we can select a
different item in the list.  Anyone have suggestions? 
                 
                Thanks !
                Linda
