How to copy formfield without onexit macro

[Sasha]

Is there a way to copy a formfield without copying the
onexit macro. Currently when I copy the formfield and
paste it somewhere else using VBA it copies the text,
which is what I want, but it also copies the onexit macro,
which I don't want. Anybody know how to do this? Thx.

Hi Sasha,

I think the answer is yes, but it's hard to be sure without
knowing more about the form document and your code. Version
of Word wouldn't hurt, either

My concerns:
1. Is there a very specific reason you're copying, rather
than taking the information from the field result? You say
you want the text, not the field, correct?

2. For the copying process to be carrying over the field, the
form document is unprotected? Do you have a specific reason
for working with an unprotected form?
