I am trying to reset the record pointer back to the first record after having
gone through the records once in a previous section of the catalog merge
document.
I need something equivalent to «Next Record» such as "«First Record»".

This is not possible. What exactly are you trying to achieve?

I have a catalog merge document that has multiple sections that pull data
from the same Microsoft Access Query but format the information differently
in various sections of the document.
As an example, I have a section that lists product part numbers with
associated descriptions and in another section the product part numbers need
to be listed again but with pricing information.
I do not control the document format so I am not at liberty to rearrange the
document.

Lacking a record control command, can you think of any tricks that might
accomplish the same results?

Catalog merges are problematic enough without this level of complexity. I
can't think of a way of doing this off hand - see if Cindy's web site
http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister can help.
