The code I posted will not of course work with legacy form fields. For that to work we would need more information about whether the form is protected and whether it is protected with a password.

Now also you are talking about 'some' of the documents. A batch process can accommodate different document types, but it will perform the same task on each.
The documents are not Password protected. Unfortunately those responsible for inserting the dropdowns are not aware of how to porgam and didn't understand the significance of the naming of things.

I have docs made in 2003, 2007 and 2010. What info do you need.

furthermore have have programmed to convert all 2003-2007 docs to be 2010 can that help?
