Re: Creating a visible field with a hidden component?

The user will be inserting these on specific pages. When I parse for the
field I then need to determine what page it is on. So there is no way to
use a DocVariable at time of insertion because the page an item is on may
change as content is added to the document.
Basically I am creating a page level dynamic tag which is used to insert
classification markers and related information used to tag content of a
paragraph. So a given page and multiple pages may contain multiple markers
that re the same or different. When the page is parsed I then generate a
page specific docvarible, which is in turn used to set a page specific
header/footer element.

Use a DocVariable for the SEQ label and a DocVariable field to incorporate
it in the SEQ field. For that matter, why not simply use document
variables to hold what you are parsing for unless you need it in a
particular place in the document body?

Well considering the SEQ part needs to be dynamic the autotext approach
is not an option.

The easiest way to insert nested fields is to create them manually
rather than through code and then save them as AutoText. To insert the
field using code, you then insert the AutoText entry.

I need to create a field that will be inserted via VBA code. This will
be made up of nested fields. The outer field will use a Quote field
with a visible text element that will show in the document. Along with
this is a nested field which contains tags that I will parse for with
another macro. The issue is I need to make the second nested field not
visible and also easily parsable in code. I'm thinking of storing a
delimited string in this field to contain the various elements need
later.

The only way I can think to do this is using the SEQ field with the \h.
Is this the only/best approach?

Here is what I want or similar:

{ QUOTE (CAUKEO) { SEQ AA-BB-CCCC \h } }

So later on I want to parse out the SEQ field associated with the QUOTE
and based on what it contains (i.e. does it include AA then..) do
something in the macro.

Any thoughts or insight on this approach?
