Remarks
The FindRecord method corresponds to the Find Record button on the Mail Merge toolbar.
The FindRecord method does a forward search only. Therefore, if the active record is not the first record in the data source and the record for which you are searching is before the active record, the FindRecord method will return no results. To ensure that the entire data source is searched, set the ActiveRecord property to wdFirstRecord.
