1.Mail Merge from inside word document using excel data file

We are using XP, and Office XP and unable to do a mail merge from inside 
Word. The data file is an Excel spreadsheet. When going to Tools/Letters & 
Mailings/Mail Merge/Use existing list
A box pops up which says "Data Link Properties" with tabs for "Provider, 
Connection, Advanced, & All".
If I do test connnection, it fails with the error "Test connection failed 
because of an error in initializing provider. Catastrophic Failure" 
If we do not run the test and try to continue to the mail merge, Word 
crashes and restarts. Either way we do not get a mail merge.

I'm thinking it has to do with the provider settings. I have tried to change 
this and I have managed to get a connection but when make any further 
attempts to continue - I only get an error message or the merge screen leaves.

2.insert Excel data into Word Mail Merge document

I have a Word document set up for Mail Merge, and I'm trying to incorporate 
data from Excel into the merged document. 

I'm developing a Bid Manual, and I'm creating 45 individual bid specs.  Each 
merged record needs to have its own unique (table/list/data--whatever way I 
can get it into Word!)---this data is currently residing in 45 cell ranges (4 
columns each, varying number of rows) in an Excel spreadsheet.

Oh, and I'm trying to make this process as automated as possible, since the 
end users of this project will have minimum skills in Word or Excel.

I've tried all kinds of macros, links, etc. and I'm not getting 
anywhere....anyone have any ideas???
