Publisher - mail merge onto postcard already made

[Julia W.]

If I have a postcard file I've already made on the
screen, when I try to pull up the "Merge" feature under
Tools, it is shaded grey and I can't open it. It insists
that I either form a new database list of addresses or
edit the one that I want to merge. I don't want to edit
the one I want to merge. I just want to MERGE it.

If, however, I have just a postcard template on the
screen (without it having been made into anything, I CAN
pull up the "merge" feature under Tools. It is not
shaded out.

How do I un-shade the merge feature and activate it for a
postcard file I've already made??

There must be a simple answer, right??
