Selecting a field

[YossiD]

I'm trying to write a macro that will select the next REF field in a document so I can apply a specific style. A recorded macro gave me this command to go to the next REF field:

Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToField, Which:=wdGoToNext, Count:=1, Name:="REF"

That puts the cursor just before the field. Now I just need to select the field. I'm sure it's simple but I can't figure out how to do that.

If you want to apply particular formatting to the field(s), why don't you just add a \* Charformat switch to them, along with formatting the 'R' in REF to suit? None of this requires the field to be selected.
