That suggests that, at some stage after doing the mailmerge setup and completing the merge, you either:
• re-opened the document and answered 'no' to the prompt before re-saving the document; or
• changed the document type from a mailmerge main document to a normal document (which you can do via the mailmerge tools.
To remedy the situation, simply use the 'select recipients' mailmerge tool to reconnect the document to your Excel workbook. You should then be able to complete the merge via the 'Finish & Merge' button. Do remember to save the updated mailmerge main document. Whether you save the latest populated document to print later is up to you; it isn't necessary, as you can run the merge when you're ready to print and you can even merge direct to the printer if you want.
