Linda....when I open the document I see the merge fields, e.g. 
<LastName>. If I then press the 'View Merged Data' button, I get data 
from the table, not the query. As I said, at this point I can use the 
'Open Data Source' button or the Mail Merge Helper to point to the 
query. Now when I look at the data, it comes from the query. But when I 
close and re-open the document, (I'm looking at the merge fields again) 
I'm linked to the table and I have to relink the query. This happens on 
3 different computers, with 3 different OS's (I forgot Win98 in my first 
message) and 2 versions of Office.
