MS Publisher/mail merge

[Rwodzicki]

I am running office 2000 and WINDOWS 98, and Publcisher
2000, When I tried to run mail merge, I receive a response
"Cannot continue mail merge" and the insert field codes
from files does not come up.
I have tried to reload Publisher 2000 to repair the files
(assuming that this was the problem) and I have tried to
match the problem against the help available for this topic
on the Microsoft site. I am completely stymied. I have
used this software for the last five years and never have
had a problem merging from WOrd files into Merged documents
on Publisher.
questions:
1. Is it a glitch in Windows 98;
2. Problem with my software?
3. Help.....
and thanks

Go here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/downloads/list/dataaccess.asp
and download and install the latest set of MDAC components.

That should fix your problem, but if for any reason it does not, post back
with the full error messages.

Make sure you re-boot after installing the MDAC components.
