I'm trying to create a sheet of labels in Word v.X (from an Excel doc). When I click on "data merge manager" in the Tools menu, nothing happens (literally).

Any ideas why? Or is there a workaround? Any direction will be appreciated.

It should pop up a palette with the various buttons used to create the merge file. But it's not very obvious if you have the formatting palettes open. You're sure the palette doesn't appear? Do you use a second monitor with your mac? Maybe it's appearing there?

Hey, thanks!

Because of your post, I checked again. The pop-up palette popped up underneath my formatting palette. This time I knew to look for it.

(Obviously, this is the first time I've used the merge manager in Word vX).
