How to use FormFields with Office 2003 ??

[Frank]

Hi,

I've use FormFields.Item method with Word 2000 to insert a text in a
document:

Word.ApplicationClass cWord = new Word.ApplicationClass();
object n == System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
object oText0 = Apllication.StartupPath + \\Test.doc;
object oText1 = "Text1";
object oText2 = "Text2";
cWord.Visible = true;
cWord.Documents.Open(ref oTest1, ref n , ...);
cWord.ActiveDocument.FormFields.Item(ref oTest2).Result=TextBox1.Text;

The problem now is that i've installed Word 2003 and it won't work
anymore. Do you have any idea how can i adapt the situation with Word
2003??

Sincerely,

Francois

Hi Frank,

As far as word's object model goes, there is no difference handling form
fields. Looking at your code, though, you've declared object oText2 =
"Text2" but use oTest2 for the Item; ditto for oText1. No idea if this
is a type (s instead of x), or if your code really looks like this. If
it does, I'm surprised in worked in 2000...
