I have an Access application that is opening a Word document for mailmerge.
The users are unsophisticated.  They push a button, see the result on their
screen, and then print it out.

Occassionally - and I've not been able to figure out what makes this
happen - the user will see a dialog box with the Alert symbol (Yellow,
exclamation point) that says:

Microsoft Office Word

 Opening the document will run the following SQL command:
 SELECT * FROM [qryMailList_PR_Fam]
 Data from your database will be place in the document.  Do you want to
continue?
            Yes          No [-the default]

If the user actually reads the message (unlikely) they would probably click
Yes, which is wrong.  If they click Yes, the wrong data comes up.  If they
click "No" then things proceed correctly.

What's going on?  How can I stop this behavior?  Like I said, most of the
time, this does not happen.

TIA
