How to search for a macrobutton field (2000/2007)

Topic

I know that I can use F11 to find the next field in a document, and I can also use Find to find the next field, but I want to find specifically the next Macrobutton field. Could a macro do that? And if so, could anyone help with the code?

Thanks…
Adri

Interactively, you can display field codes (Alt+F9) and search for the word MACROBUTTON, or if you want to select the entire field, search for ^d MACROBUTTON (^d is the code to search for a field in the Find dialog; you must display field codes for it to work).

You can loop through fields in a macro:

Sub LoopFields()
Dim fld As Field
For Each fld In ActiveDocument.Fields
If fld.Type = wdFieldMacroButton Then
‘ Your code here
…
End If
Next fld
End Sub
