Your question is short on context

It's not clear whether you're referring to an EQ field or a formula field (or, potentially, another field embedded in one of those), or maybe even an Equation object.
The following function determines whether the selection spans or is within a
field of any kind.
Code:
Function WithInField(Rng As Word.Range) As Boolean
' Based on code by Don Wells: http://www.eileenslounge.com/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=6622
' Approach : This procedure is based on the observation that, irrespective of _
a field's ShowCodes state, toggling the field's ShowCodes state _
twice collapses the selection to the start of the field.
Dim lngPosStart As Long, lngPosEnd As Long, StrNot As String
WithInField = True: lngPosStart = Rng.Start: lngPosEnd = Rng.End
With Selection
.Fields.ToggleShowCodes
.Fields.ToggleShowCodes
' Test whether the selection has moved; if not, it may already have been _
at the start of a field, in which case, move right and test again.
If .Start = lngPosStart Then
.MoveRight
.Fields.ToggleShowCodes
.Fields.ToggleShowCodes
If .Start = lngPosStart + 1 Then
WithInField = False
End If
End If
End With
End Function
You can use the function with code like:
Code:
Sub TestWithInField()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim Rng As Word.Range, c As Word.Range, StrRslt As String
Set Rng = Selection.Range
For Each c In Rng.Characters
StrRslt = StrRslt & c.Text & ",WithInField:" & WithInField(Rng:=c) & vbCr
Next
Rng.Select
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
MsgBox StrRslt
End Sub
