What is the best way to remove all merge fields from a word 2010 document using openxml sdk 2.0, and replace them with a simple text? I have some difficulties to remove them cleanly. Have tried to remove all Run objects that includes a FieldCode with a “MERGEFIELD” defined, and appended a new Run with my text. But I am missing something crucial since the field seems to stay defined for this element.
Ok, I solved this somehow. I pick out every paragraph that contains a FieldCode that contains the text “MERGEFIELD” and run through every Run, pushing all other types onto a List. When I discover a FieldChar End type, I roll back and replace the four Runs making up the merge field with a single Run containing a Text node. The only problem I have left now is nested fields. E.g. Merge field inside an if test.
