Content control titles

macropod · #1 05-29-2012, 06:11 AM

AFAIK, the only way to use the title directly is to loop through the collection:

Code:

Dim CCtrl As ContentControl
For Each CCtrl In ActiveDocument.ContentControls
  If CCtrl.Title = "My Title" Then
    'do something
  End If
Next

If you were doing a lot of Content Control processing in code, rather than interactively, you might get a performance improvement if you store the collection in code first:

Code:

Sub Demo()
Dim CCtrlSet As Variant, CCtrl As ContentControl
Set CCtrlSet = ActiveDocument.ContentControls
For Each CCtrl In CCtrlSet
  If CCtrl.Title = "My Title" Then
    'do something
  End If
Next
Set CCtrlSet = Nothing
End Sub
