Office 2000 mail merge to labels bozzer 11/8/2008 10:12:00 PM I am trying to do a mail merge and have tried other suggestions posted on this discussion group. However, I am still having problems. It states, "initiating DDE Link with microsoft excel", but doesn't do anything after that...it just freezes. Anyone have the same problem or better yet solution?
