Exporting content control to Excel
If you want to get data out of Word 2007 content controls, you'll
probably have to write VBA or .NET code to do it, or find another way to get the data out of the .docx files that you save. If all you wanted to do was carry on using the same form fields you had in 2003, they ae still there, but in the Developer tab in the ribbon-Controls-Legacy tools.

Exporting content control to Excel
Seems like you found out how to post a question. See my response to your
later post. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP, originally posted via msnews.microsoft.com "Rbrown" wrote in message ... Hi Peter, I can't seem to post a question but I can submit a reply. My question is slightly different. I am in the oil and gas business in Calgary. My particular business requires collecting data on a premade word document then submitting that word document to one company. However, before I submit this word document I take some of the data from it and put it on a excel spread sheet that I submit to the Alberta Government. The Government portion takes alot of my time in a very rushed atmosphere. Is there some way that I can take pieces from my word document and easily export it to a excel spreadsheet in a certain format? If you suggest a VBA program can you direct me to someone who can help me with that? Look forward to your replyl -- Sincerely, Rick "Peter Jamieson" wrote: If you want to get data out of Word 2007 content controls, you'll probably have to write VBA or .NET code to do it, or find another way to get the data out of the .docx files that you save.
