I'm using Office 2003 and want to do a mailmerge in Word with Excel data.
I click the "Open Data Source" button and select *.xls for type of file.
Browse out to the .xls data source. (First row=header, etc) and select it.

But instead of getting the "Select Table" requester with the list of sheets and named ranges, I get the "Data Link Properties" requester opened on the connection tab with the .xls document selected. If I click OK, Word aborts.

This behavior is happening only on one W2K machine. Other W2K machines are OK.

Thanks in advance for any help! This is driving me crazy!
