Mail Merge with Datasource and Mail Merge Letter on Network Drive

I have an excel database that is linked to my organization's database. Is there any reason why the database will update when I save it on my C Drive, but not on the network drive?

I saw your previous question about Word Mail Merge + an Excel datasource populated from a database, and that seems to have been resolved, but...

...the body of your question suggests that this is an Excel problem, whereas the title suggests it is a Word problem. If it's just an Excel problem, you should re-post in the appropriate Excel group here. If it's also to do with Word, can you clarify (and/or edit your question as appropriate) please?

Of course. I think I was thinking Word because I am using the database in a merge document, but the problem lies within Excel. I have reposted and pasted the link below. Thank you!
