    Hi houbal,

    Your problem description suggests your ID field or textbox contains something other than just the numbers - perhaps spaces or other characters that result in FindRecord not locating the records concerned. In any event, since it seems you're only outputting one record at a time, I question the need for using a VBA-driven mailmerge to do this. You could do it just as easily or more so with VBA alone.
    Cheers,
