Ok...Are we up for some Registry Hacking?  It is the last post on the page(even though it says members only...just scroll down)...good luck.

P.S...NO WARRANTY...I just found it...passed it on...have NOT tried it...just sharing.

******************link snip*************
DCrats:The problem is resolved... This is what I had to do:

The document is linked to a data source....and I got this message when I open the document in word. You receive the "Opening this will run the following SQL command" message when you open a Word mail merge main document that is linked to a data source


Word 2007
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Word\Options 

"SQLSecurityCheck"=dword:00000000
1. Start Registry Editor. 
2. Locate and then click the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Word\Options 
3. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value. 
4. Under Name, type:
SQLSecurityCheck 
5. Double-click SQLSecurityCheck. 
6. In the Value data box, type: 
00000000  
7. Click OK.
