2002 - 2003

[Michael Koerner]

I have a number of mail merges set up, using Excel as the data source. the merges work just fine in Word & Excel ver 97/2002

When I moved my files into 2003, I'm continually receive the following message when I open the merge document.

"Opening this document will run the following SQL command:
SELECT *From 'Nominal Roll$'
Data from your database will be placed in the document. Do you want to continue?..."

How do I turn this off so as not have to indicate yes every time I open the document?

I have the same problem with a textfile datasource. In
Word XP (and previous versions) the document opens with
the mergefields visible, in word 2003 it wants to
run "select * from <mytextfile.txt". Obviously that does
not work.
I'd love to find out how to turn this SQL behavier off.
