Zusammenfassung:A method for examining a mask includes providing a position data set having error positions of the mask to be examined, providing a structure data set having the structure of the mask, and specifying structural features of the mask, the values of which are to be determined. At each error position, determining the values of the specified structural features of the structure by using a computing unit, determining a measuring task from specified decision criteria and from the determined values of the structural features of the structure by using the computing unit, and carrying out the determined measuring task in a manner controlled by the computing unit. In addition, a device, in particular a microscope, for carrying out the method is provided.
