Field Codes 1

[wtrhzrd]

Does anyone know how to search the field codes in a microsoft word document? Can you use VB or something? I want to do something similar to the way MS Word sets up an index but with a few modifications. Any comments would be appreciated

If you go to Edit Find, click More, click Special, you should be able to search for a field one at a time.

Thanks! I didn't know that was there. Now I want to be able to do that in code. VB or something. Is this possible?

This will pop a message box for each Field in your document:

Sub fields()

Dim oField As Field

For Each oField In ActiveDocument.Fields
MsgBox oField.Code.Text
Next oField

End sub
