It sounds like you saved the doc with your last merge, versus with the
addresses. In pre XP versions, a data source is simply a Word table. So
open the address.doc in Word and see what you have. Is it a table or is
it a formatted set of docs? (XP uses an Access DB as it's source.)

Subject: [mso] Labels question
Can anyone help with Labels?
I want to print mailing labels that I have from a previous mail merge
experiment with Office 2000. I open WORD, select TOOLS | MAIL MERGE |
CREATE MAILING LABELS. Select Active Window and then on DATA SOURCE |
OPEN DATA SOURCE then scroll to my MAILINGLIST.DOC file that I used
previously. When I select the file and click open I get Office Assistant
that says: WORD cannot open Mailing List as a data or header source
because it is a MAIL MERGE main document. All I want to do is print the
labels with the different addresses, can anyone shed any light on what I
am doing wrong??
