Method FindFieldsEverywhere

Namespace: DocWright.Dom.Fields

Assembly: DocWright.Dom.dll

FindFieldsEverywhere(WordDocument)

Finds every field in a document's body, headers, footers, footnotes and endnotes.

public static IReadOnlyList<FieldRegion> FindFieldsEverywhere(this WordDocument document)

Parameters

document WordDocument: The document.

Returns

IReadOnlyList<FieldRegion>: The fields found, body first.

Remarks

Equivalent to FindFields(DomNode) on the same document, and kept because it names the guarantee a form-filling or merge pass depends on: the fields in a letterhead header are included, and skipping them leaves a document that still looks correct.

It used to append the headers, footers and notes to that walk. They were already in it — Children has been a composite over all four collections since the DOM was written — so every field outside the body was returned twice, and a caller iterating the result acted on each of them twice.
