I prefer this:
if short name of field N is "Address" then

Thank you.
When I looked up 'number" for a property of an object in the Dictionary
the only entry I found for number was "the number of and all
its variants - i.e counts. I must have just missed number as a property
of a single object.

Hi Paul.
Your field numbers will not be the same as layer numbers if anything else is in
a layer between or before them.
The better indicator would be
If word 7 of X = the number of fld “Address” then
That will do what you are thinking I believe.

Here is a basic question I am not sure of (after decades of LC coding)
and can't pin down in teh Dictionary
If you execute "put the selectedChunk into X" then (assume a valid
selection) X contains an expression of the form "char to
of field "
If I want to check that the selection is in one
