Hi Lisa,
I've never encountered the problem before, but the size is
certainly a possibility. You might try merging using an older
connection method. Active the "Confirm conversions on open"
option in Tools/Options/General. When you select the xls
workbook you'll get a listing of connection methods. Try
everything (except OLE DB, which is the default). If you get
any results, I'd be interested in knowing more.
