Default Forgotten Sort and Filter Criteria

I am creating mailing labels using Word and Excel 2010. c.docx contains a Labels-type Mailing mail merge which uses “Edit Recipient List” Filter and Sort criteria. The labels data is in c.xslx in named columns.


On PC “A” the files are in d:\aaa\LBLS. The labels work as desired.



I then copy the LBLS subdir to PC “B” to d:\bbb\LBLS. On that PC I open c.docx and tell Word the location of the LBLS subdir and the c.xslx file in that subdir. Looks good – labels data, the Filter and Sort criteria, and the generated labels are as desired. So I save c.docx back into d:\bbb\LBLS. If I reopen c.docx it remembers the wanted c.xslx file and the data fields, but the “Edit Recipient List” Filter and Sort criteria are missing. Why?



I can duplicate this problem over different subdirs on different PCs. Hope there aren’t "two" many typos. Thanks!
