    Macro To Connect Word Document To Excel Not Working

    Hi,

    I have made a macro in word which have worked perfectly until last week. It is a macro which ensure that the word document is connected to an excel spreadsheet, regardless of whether the files are copied to another folder in a mail merge.

    Do you know what is wrong with the following macro?

    Code:
    Private Sub Document_Open()
    Dim Aktuelsti As String, Saldodata As String
    
    Aktuelsti = ActiveDocument.Path
    
    Saldodata = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
    "User ID=Admin;" & _
    "Data Source=" & Aktuelsti & "\data.xls;" & _
    "Mode=Read;" & _
    "Extended Properties=""HDR=YES;IMEX=1;"";" & _
    "Jet OLEDB:System database="""";" & _
    "Jet OLEDB:Registry Path="""";" & _
    "Jet OLEDB:Database Passw"
    
    ActiveDocument.MailMerge.OpenDataSource _
    Name:=Aktuelsti & "\data.xls", _
    LinkToSource:=True, _
    Format:=wdOpenFormatAuto, _
    SQLStatement:="SELECT * FROM `Dansk$`", _
    SQLStatement1:="", _
    SubType:=wdMergeSubTypeAccess

    fjeldgaard, if you can share the entire piece of the code, and also the source files, we could test and try to figure out. Just using your couple of lines above isn't helping.
    A dream is not something you see when you are asleep, but something you strive for when you are awake.

    It's usually a bad idea to say that something can't be done.

    The difference between dream and aim, is that one requires soundless sleep to see and the other requires sleepless efforts to achieve
