Default No options for Insert Mail Merge Fields

Using Word 2000. Have set up a document and a data source. However, when in
the document and I click on Insert Merge Field, nothing happens. There are no
choices. What am I doing wrong?

Have you attached the data source to the mailmerge main document? Is the
data source set up properly with valid field names in the first row. What
is the data source?

See the article “Creating a Mail Merge Data Source” at:
