Default Why do I get the "Enter the Date" dialog?

In Word Mail Merge, I click on "Finish & Merge" and "Edit Individual Documents", and I get a "Merge to New Document" dialog.
Then I get a dialog that says "Enter the Date".
Why do I get that dialog? I just hit OK and it works fine. Why is it asking for the date. How can I stop that dialog from appearing?
Thanks.

Default How do I remove an "Ask" Rule?

Ok, I figured out that the reason I get an "Enter the Date" dialog is because my mail merge document contains an "Ask" Rule. Unfortunately, I don't see that rule getting used anywhere in my document, and can't figure out how to remove the Rule so that the dialogbox won't pop up every time I Finish & Merge.

Alt F9 shows me where the Enter the Date rule is, so that I can delete it.
