Default

It is easy enough to include the default text, but I personally would do things slight differently embracing ranges.


Code:
Option Explicit

Sub CreateTextField()
Dim oRng As Range
Dim aFld As FormField
    Set oRng = Selection.Range
    With oRng
        .End = .Paragraphs(1).Range.End + 1
        .Collapse 0
        .Text = vbCr
        .Collapse 0
        Set aFld = .FormFields.Add(Range:=oRng, Type:=wdFieldFormTextInput)
        aFld.TextInput.EditType Type:=wdRegularText, Default:="Category", Format:="First capital"
        .End = aFld.Range.End
        .Font.Bold = True
        .Collapse 0
        .Text = ":  "
        .Font.Bold = False
        .Collapse 0
        Set aFld = .FormFields.Add(Range:=oRng, Type:=wdFieldFormTextInput)
        aFld.TextInput.EditType Type:=wdRegularText, Default:="Detail", Format:="First capital"
        .End = aFld.Range.End
        .Collapse 0
        'why do you need this? The bookmarks shouldn't be an issue
        'Do While .Paragraphs(1).Range.Bookmarks.Count > 0
        '    .Paragraphs(1).Range.Bookmarks(1).Delete
        'Loop
        .Select
    End With
lbl_Exit:
    Set oRng = Nothing
    Set aFld = Nothing
    Exit Sub
End Sub
