Insert textfile into formfield

[Mark]

I am using Office XP.

Can someone please assist me with some code which with a case statement as
below picksup a value from another formfield and selects the appropriate text
file which is an address and places it in a formfield wrapping round the rows
of text?

I have tried various suggestions but to no avail!

Sub CrimeNo()
Dim strDivision As String

strDivision = Left(ActiveDocument.FormFields("CrimeNo").Result, 2)

Select Case strDivision

Case "EA"

'Selection.Fields.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Type:=wdFieldIncludeText, _
'Text:="H:\\Victims Code\\EA.txt", PreserveFormatting:=False

'ActiveDocument.FormFields("Address").Select _
'Selection.TypeText Text:="H:\\Victims Code\\EA.txt"

'ActiveDocument.FormFields("Address").Select _
'Selection.Range.Text , Type:=wdFieldIncludeText, _
'Text:="H:\\Victims Code\\EA.txt", PreserveFormatting:=False

Case Else

End Select

Thanks

Hi Mark,

In order to insert a field you will need to remove the document protection,
first. After inserting the field, you reimplement the protection. The basic code
for that you'll find in the Forms section on my website.
