This is not a huge problem but irritating nonetheless. When I do a mail
merge in Word, and I click on the "ABC" icon on the merge tool bar to see the
actual merge data, nothing happens. I get only the merge field info not the
actual data. I am running Windows XP and have Office XP Professional. Is
there a fix for this?

Thank-you so much Graham! That works perfectly! (Of course you knew it would!)
