Hi, Thanks for the reply but I'm still having trouble. I'm either way off-course, misusing LO or making a dumb rookie mistake. I copied your macros to my odt document. I then did a "tools, macros, run macro..." and selected the Subs I copied. If I run EnumerateTextFields then it yields the "Finished" message box (nothing else). If I run DisplayMasterFields then it yields the following message: ===Text Field Masters=== (com.sun.star.text.fieldmaster.SetExpression.Illustration,Illustration) (com.sun.star.text.fieldmaster.SetExpression.Table,Table) (com.sun.star.text.fieldmaster.SetExpression.Text,Text) (com.sun.star.text.fieldmaster.SetExpression.Drawing,Drawing) My odt document has 2 input fields in a form. By the way, if I place a button within my form and configure the "Mouse button pressed" to launch, say, EnumerateTextFields then I get the following error message: "LibreOffice 4.0.2.2 BASIC runtime error. '423' getTextFields" and it points at the line: "oEnum = oDoc.getTextFields().createEnumeration()" I'm stuck on something that should be quite simple. I'm attaching my odt file hoping that someone can tell me what novice mistake I'm making.
