What is the exact error?

It could be updating your MDAC components and the JET might be the solution.

Default Mail merge cannot continue in Publisher 2000

Exact error is "Mail merge cannot continue" when I try to Open Data Source or
load a file that contains a merged file.

I have reloaded the software from the original Publisher disk and this had
no effect.

Sorry should have said Windows XP. Have reloaded Publisher from original disk
without this solving the problem.

Exaxt error is "mail merge cannot continue" whwn I select Open Data Source
or when I open a file which contains a merged file.

I have tried loading Jet but was told have later version. Also MDAC but if
I'm honest I'm a novice user and didn't completely understand the mircosoft
posts.

What are you using as your data base? Do you use the same data over and over?
Have you thought about copy/pasting the fields to a new file? You may have some
corruption going on.

Most programs that can create a .dbf file can also create other types of files
that Publisher can use as the data source for a mail merge. If you are creating
a mail merged publication that you will need to keep reopening, save the data in
another format (such as a delimited text (.txt) or Microsoft Database (.mdb)
file).

I believe I have installed the MDAC components and hopefully correctly. I
guess I just have to try another package.
