When you get the dialogue asking which sheet, check the box which allows
you to manually chose a connection method, and pick one other than DDE.

Subject: [mso] mail merge


Win2000, Office 2000.Pentium 2 with lots of memory. I have merged my
membership list in Excel to Word to feed envelopes into the printer to
by-pass the labels process. I was part way doing a second list
(different names) the same way and after "the entire spreadsheet" came
up on the screen I had a window pop up that said..Word couldn't
re-establish a DDE connection to Microsoft Excel to complete the current
task.That is as far as I can go.I tried several times to do it and
always had the same window appear. I made out another spreadsheet from
scratch and this didn't do anything either.Any suggestions how this
happened and how can I fix it T.I.A........bill
