In Word 2003 (Windows XP) is there a way search for cross-references?

Default Search for cross-references

In Word, cross-references are REF fields, which means you can do the
following: Press Alt+F9 to show field codes. Display the Find dialog box
(Ctrl+F). In the "Find what" box, type ^d. Use the Find Next button to move
between REF fields.

Or use ^d REF if you just want to find REF fields and no others.
Alternatively, F11 will go to the next field even when field codes aren't
displayed.

^d REF is what I meant to suggest, of course! Thank you.

OK...thanks.

Now I'm going to be selfish.

Is there a way to only search for REF fields, but not have to turn on
field codes? I want to be able to see what the field code evaluates
to, as I'm going from field code to field code.

Finally, is there a native keyboard shortcut for Next Find? If not,
I'll use a macro.

Thanks.

Find Next, if you're just finding (not replacing) is Enter while the Find
dialog is open. Or you can use the double-down-arrow button at the bottom of
the vertical scroll bar; the keyboard equivalent of that (BrowseNext, which
in this case is Next Find/Go To) is Ctrl+PageDown.

The following macro will work

Dim oField As Field
For Each oField In ActiveDocument.Fields
If oField.Type = wdFieldRef Then
oField.Select
MsgBox oField.Code
End If
Next oField
