SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft Word, any fields inserted from menus or by pressing CTRL+F9
include a space at the beginning and a space at the end. Earlier versions
of Word do not include these extra spaces.
This may be a problem if a macro written for an earlier version of Word
searches for a field code using ^19fieldname.
RESOLUTION
To find fields, the search must be modified to include a space between ^19
and the field name.
MORE INFORMATION
The extra spaces are provided for ease of reading the contents of the
field.
