word controls on a page

[Adrian Turner]

I have controls on the page, as opposed to within a form. How would you cycle
through the controls collection. If they were on a form it would be easy. You
can also reference them by the name directly, but is there not a collection ?

Thanks

Adrian

ActiveX controls belong either to the Shapes or InlineShapes Collections.
You can walk these something like this (the MsgBox is just for
demonstration):

For Each Sh In ActiveDocument.InlineShapes
If Sh.Type = wdInlineShapeOLEControlObject Then
Set OLE = Sh.OLEFormat
Set Obj = OLE.Object
MsgBox OLE.ClassType & vbTab & Obj.Name
End If
Next

Hello Adrain,

I am not sure if I understand your question correctly. If you meant ActiveX
controls (in Control ToolBox toolbar) by "controls on the page", I will go
along with Tony's suggestion. If you meant form fields (in Forms toolbar),
we need to cycle though the ActiveDocument.FormFields collection.

know.
