I'm having trouble figuring out exactly how to tell Word to open the data for a mail merge. The data file is an Excel spreadsheet.

So far I have...
oWord.ActiveDocument.MailMerge.

...and have tried...
oWord.ActiveDocument.MailMerge.DataSource.Name = m.dir+"data\labels.xls"
oWord.ActiveDocument.MailMerge.OpenDataSource.name=m.dir+"data\labels.xls"
oWord.ActiveDocument.MailMerge.OpenDataSource.DataSource.Name=m.dir+"data\labels.xls"
oWord.ActiveDocument.MailMerge.OpenDataSource.ShowWizard.DataSource.Name=m.dir+"data\labels.xls"
oWord.ActiveDocument.MailMerge.DataSource=m.dir+"data\labels.xls"
oWord.ActiveDocument.MailMerge.OpenDataSource.DataSource.Name=m.dir+"data\labels.xls"

I've been receiving "'Name' not a by reference property" or "parameter not optional".

Sure hope I'm getting close!

Any suggestions are GREATLY appreciated.

Martha
