Default New Record does not appear when trying to merge data into Word

I am trying to merge data in an excel worksheet into Word 2007 to create
labels. I followed the steps I found in a tutorial online, however when I go
to "select recipients" and choose the excel data file, nothing appears in the
labels template on Word (even thought the tutorial says New Record should
appear). When I go to "edit recipient list" all of the information IS there,
but I can't seem to get it into the labels template because the merge field
of New Record does not appear. Any suggestions?

I don't know which on-line tutorial you used, but
http://www.gmayor.com/merge_labels_with_word_2007.htm has all the steps
fully illustrated.
