I suggest you
a. check if there are any blank or hidden rows in your worksheet. If so,
delete them. Word will probably never see the rows below that
b. if not,
- close your Excel workbook
- close your Word document
- re-open your Word document
- try opening the recipients dialog again
- if you still do not see the new data, try going through the process of
connecting to the Excel data again.

As a workaround you can always try copying/pasting your Excel data into a
Word document and use that as the data source instead.
