How do I retrieve data collected with the FILLIN field code?

[kcm]

I'm collecting information from a user via the field code FILLIN so that I
can use the info in other parts of my document. How do I retrieve the info
once Word collects it? Where is it stored?

You can get the information by using the following code:

Dim afield As Field
For Each afield In ActiveDocument.Fields
If afield.Type = wdFieldFillIn Then
MsgBox afield.Result
End If
Next afield
