But, since I don't know what to do with the record number anyway, that is'nt imporant. I have however another wuestion now: When I have found the record that I want, and it has been inserted into a Word document, I also want to check the contents of another field in the record, to decide further action to take. How do I do that?

Rolf,

You should be able to test any additional fields in the current record by -- myMMData.Fields("name of field here") -- of course you can only do this following your previous code above.
