I have just converted to Office 2003. Today when merging some forms,
which I have done for over a year without any problems, I encountered
to messages which I have never seen before. I opened the template,
found my data source (an Excel file), and performed the merge. I merged
all forms into one file and then proceeded to separte them as needed.
After saving the file by using the save button on the tool bar, I got
the first message " Do you want to save changes to the document
template?" I answered NO. Then when I attemtped to close the document
using the X in the upper right hand corner, I got this error message:
"Do you want to save changes to 'Report form Blank.dot'." I also
answered NO. The help button mention an SQL command the document wan
trying to run. What SQL command? I am used to SQL in Access, but have
never encountered in Word using a relatively simple document saved as a
template. Whew!

Any thoughts will be appreciated.
