find and replace fields

Hi All,
I'm looking to use find and replace to find some text and
replace it with a field. Can it be done?

Cheers

Martin

Word has only limited ability to do this.
You could create the field manually using CTRL+F9 to set the field
boundaries, then copy to the clipboard.
Use Replace to search for the text and replace with the clipboard contents.
