Default How to open Excel list in Word for mail merge/labels?

Following Office Online instructions to "Print labels by using Excel data in
a Word mail merge," all goes well until Select Table. The error message is
"Unable to open data source." I've checked the steps multiple time to no
avail. Thanks for help!

Thanks, John, although I have done as you suggest several times. I've saved
to Desktop and to Data Sources with the same result. However, I'll give it
another shot this morning.
