VB- Mail Merge

I using VB to mail merge the document to generate letters,
I already wrote a program which merges the data from
Oracle database and produces the letters on Windows
NT/Microsoft Word2000. But the same program is not working
on the XP/Word2000 producing error "Word Unable to open
the document".
After trying for some days I gave up and now Trying to run
another Mail merge application using SQL Server Database,
When I try to merge the documnet with the Merge Wizard,
the same problems arise after selecting the data source on
the letter template the system gives the error
message "Word Unable to open the data source". I try to
open the datasoure by using ODC and DSN but nothing works.

Is anyone can help me in fixing the problem.

Please mail me if you require more inputs.

Thanks

Ajay
