field codes

[Guest]

Hi,

Does anyone know where I can get a complete list of all the field codes used
in Word? Also, how do I get the company information from the Properties
dialog box to appear in my document?

Many Thanks

Andy

Hi Andy,

Open the Insert > Field dialog. The "Field names" list box contains all the
field types. For any particular field type, enter that keyword in the help
box at the right end of the menu bar to find a topic that describes the
syntax, switches, and examples. (The topic may not appear at the top of the
list, even if you type in exactly the title shown in the topic. We've been
beating on MS about that...)

You can also open the VBA editor, press F2 to display the Object Browser,
and look for all the constants that begin with "wdField".

To get the company name in the document, insert the field {DocProperty
Company}.

Try the Insert>Field dialog

If you select DocProperty from the list of fields in that dialog, Company is
one of the properties that can be inserted by selecting it from the list of
properties that will appear in the dialog.
