[mso] trying to change the data source for a MS Word mail merge

We have an access database that does over 100 MS Word mail merge's to
produce things like envelopes, letters, labels, etc. We have changed the name
of the database file (believe me we had a good reason), so now none of the
merge's can find the data source becauase they are looking at the old database.
When I try to open the word doc we get a dialogue box with two options,
'find data source', or 'remove all mail merge fields'. I choose 'find data
source'
and naviage to the new file name. When I choose the filename it comes up
with a list of objects but only 10-15. There are over 300 objects in the
database. Can anyone give me an idea of why I don't see all the objects or
point me to any manuals that might help using Access with MS Word mail
merge?
