Default Changed data will not merge

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

Just hazarding some thoughts here .. after saving changes in the excel
source, perhaps try exiting and re-opening Word (sort of
re-establish/re-activate the link). Or, try exiting/re-opening both Excel and
Word.
