Dennis,

if you want to get to the field directly then I am using the Adobe JavaScript object. It requires late binding but it saves looping:

Open your pdf document and then set the pdf object to a variable

gPDFPath = App.Path & "\" & txtFileName.Text & ".pdf"

'If a file is selected, try to open it
If Len(gPDFPath) > 0 Then

'Show acribat if it's hidden
    gApp.Show

' create PDDoc object
    foundErr = False
    Set gPdDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")

' open the PDF in acrobat
    If gPdDoc.Open(gPDFPath) Then
        gPdDoc.OpenAVDoc ("")
    Else
        MsgBox "Failed to open " & gPDFPath
    End If
End If

Set jso = gPdDoc.GetJSObject

Once the above code has the object you can reference the fields without looping like so...

Msgbox jso.getfield("Oper_Name").Value

You can change the Property (Value) to almost anything as stated in the Javascript help file that comes with Adobe Acrobat 5 (full version)
