Default make 2003 mail merge user-interface the same as 2000

I just got a new PC with Word 2003. In my sales job, I frequently
demonstrate Word's mail merge function to create mailing labels from a
Microsoft SQL database.

I LOVED the mail merge user-interface in Word 2000. I HATE the mail merge
user-interface in Word 2003.

Is there a way that I can change 2003's user-interface to emulate 2000's?

Thanks. Dan
