There is no way to insert the URN number automatically if you cannot
identify the method by which you decide which letter has which URN number.
The computer isn't psychic! You are going to have to merge to a new document
and insert the URN numbers in the letters that require them manually. How do
*you* decide which letters require numbers?

Hi,
It doesn't really matter if it sometimes has a URN number or
not....Its like adding additional piece of information to the letter
in regard to that specific record that is sourced from the database
but making sure that information does not show up on all the other
letters.
I'm really sorry about this...I'm trying my best to explain.

Hi Graham,
Basically the URN number has to be inserted manually after the whole
letter has produced all the information sourced from the database.
There's a lot of data approx:17,000 records.
What i'm trying to do is i need to add information to each letter of
each record after the merging has taken place.

Hi,
I would be grateful if someone could give me some advice on how I
can change details on specific records on a mail merged document
that wouldn't change the details on all other merged letters. (The
data is being sourced from MS Access 2003, and I am using Office
XP).
For example On the letter with:
Record No: 1001 --- (I need to add URN code: 132665)
Record No: 1002 --- (I need to add URN code: 132698)
Taking into consideration that URN is not a database field which
can be used as a source its just a details that needs to be added
onto the letter. Sorry to confuse you, but hope i've explained
myself. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks Kush.
