    Hi All, We are trying to carry out a mail merge in Word 2007, which should be straight forward only we are running into issues. We have a SQL Anywhere 10 ODBC Data Source setup on the machine and we are trying to access this database to populate certain areas of a letter. We used the step-by-step mail merge wizard and at Step 3 (Select Recipients), with "Use an Existing List" selected we click on the Browse hyperlink, which opened the "Select Data Source" window, where "+Connect to New Data Source" is selected, which in turn opens the "Data Connection Wizard". The ODBC Data Source previously created is selected and the username and password entered, the test on the connection is successful but when clicking the Ok button we receive the following message: "The Data Connection Wizard cannot obtain a list of databases from the specified data source" Does anyone know the steps needed to get around this issue? Thank you, Mel
