How does one do a mail merge in OpenOffice 1.0.1 under Win2K?

I've followed the instructions at
  http://documentation.openoffice.org/HOW_TO/word_processing/writer2_EN.html#2
but with no luck.  Everthing works just fine for step 1 and most of step 2.
 But at step 2.4.bullet#4 where it begins "Holding the mouse button down,
... ", the field never appears in my document.  Instead the mouse cursor
changes from an arrow to a thick "NO" symbol (a circle with a line through
it).

Has anyone been able to get mail merge to work?

Pointers to resources are greatly appreciated.

Regards,
- Robert
