Stop a macro when an Append query will append zero records

I have written a macro that I want to repeat until there are no more records to append (i.e., append zero rows). Is there a way for a condition to be applied to the macro that can detect if no records will be appended to the target table?

I do not know VB and need to do this with macros, queries, tables, and other objects (though I a reasonably familiar with properties and very familiar with expressions)

Thanks!

try this.

Dim Msg As String
DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryYourQuery", acNormal, acEdit

If IsNull(DLookup("SomeField", "qryYourQuery")) Then
Msg = "No data. "
MsgBox Msg
DoCmd.Close
Exit Sub

End If
