ms word 2002

I do not know if this is the right list for this question but I am at 
the end of my rope. I have migrated a number of database into postgres 
and every thing seems to be working fine as far as the data is 
concerned. I am now beginnng the development work using php. The problem 
is when some of the users are tring to extract data using MS word 2002. 
They try to do a mail merge pulling the data from postgres. But it does 
not seem to see the tables. I am able to make an  odbc connection to the 
database. If I make an odbc connection using MS Acess and then pull the 
data from the access query to the word mail merge it works. What I would 
like to do is to avoid using access. Does anyone know how I can get MS 
word 2002 to import from a postgres table.
