Freezing with Merge

S

sicem.adb

Whenever I attempt to select the data source for a merge, Word Freezes
and I'm not even able to force quit. I've manually shut down now about
eight times trying to figure out the problem.

Please help!!!

Errrk!!! You need to nuke your preferences...

See here:
http://word.mvps.org/MacWordNew/TroubleshootingIndex.htm

You will need to follow the whole process. The one that will probably fix
the problem is " Damaged Preferences and Settings", but you will need to do
all the steps before it first, or it may not work.

Sorry: It's a long job...

Cheers

I was wondering if the data source might be corrupt? You might first test
to make sure Word freezes with *all* data sources or just the one.

And re the troubleshooting Index link--hit refresh a few times in Safari, or
use a different browser--Safari doesn't like that site.
