Find Field Properties

A field that is inserted using DocumentBuilder.InsertField returns a Field object. This is a faсade class that provides useful methods to quickly find some properties of a field.

The following code example shows how to find the field code and field result:

//For complete examples and data files, please go to https://github.com/aspose-words/Aspose.Words-for-C
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(MyDir + "Hyperlinks.docx");

for(const auto& field : doc->get_Range()->get_Fields())
{
    auto fieldCode = field->GetFieldCode();
    auto fieldResult = field->get_Result();
}

Note if you are only looking for the names of merge fields in a document, then you can instead use the built-in GetFieldNames method.

The following code example shows how to get names of all merge fields in a document:

//For complete examples and data files, please go to https://github.com/aspose-words/Aspose.Words-for-C
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>();

ArrayPtr<String> fieldNames = doc->get_MailMerge()->GetFieldNames();
