This indicates that you have saved a Mail Merge Main Document as your Normal
template.
Unless you have valuable data in the Normal template (do you? You need to
be sure...) the easiest way to fix this is to delete Normal.dotm.
Quit (not minimise...) Word, before trying to delete Normal, or this won't
work.
Unless you have moved Normal.dotm it will be in ~/Library/Application
Support/Microsoft/Office/User Templates/
If you need to keep Normal, you need to customise your toolbar to add a
command that is not normally used.
The command is called MailMergeReset. Drag it to any toolbar, then drag it
off again when you have finished.
Close all other documents, use File>Open from within Word to navigate to
Normal, open it, then run the command, and save Normal.
Hope this helps

I would be grateful if you could tell me how to stop the mail merge manager
always opening when I open any word document. in addition, sometimes
documents that are not mail merge documents will not open until I locate the
source of the mail merge or remove the source. Very frustrating.
