For years I have been using Word programs (Office 2000 series) to access
Excel name and address data files to produce letters, mailing
labels, etc. Now, when executing a Word merge program, I am all of a sudden
receiving the message, "Waiting for Microsoft Excel to Accept DDE Commands."
The computer then hangs up, as if in a loop. This is true for all my Word
merge programs. Nor can I create a new merge document in Word, because the
program hangs up when attempting to access the Excel name and address file.
What has happened?
Thanks in advance.

P.S. I tried two Word user forums on this topic without success. One MVP
suggested that someone in an Excel forum might have some thoughts.
