Excel data source will not merge changes to Word

Guest

I am performing mail merge in Microsoft Word, with an excel worksheet as the
data source. The merge function works fine, but whenever I make changes in
the excel worksheet, the new changes in the worksheet are not reflected in
the Word form, only the previously saved changes are shown. I am saving the
excel worksheet after making the changes. I can't figure out why my changes
are not shown in Word when I perform merge, please help!

Thank you,
Jen

Click the icon for Mail Merge Recipients and then click the Edit tab. This is
in Word.

The Edit tab in the Mail Merge Recipients is not able to be clicked - don't
know why. I am opening the excel sheet first, making changes, hiting save,
then opening the word document and merging into new document. Only way it
merges the changes is if I select it as a data source again.
