    Office 2010: Transfer Form Content Control Data into Excel Database - Macro Help

    Hello,

    I am trying to find a macro that will copy data entered into form fields in a word document and into an excel database. I have seen other macros which take all forms in a folder and populate a database, but since this database will be used over time I would prefer that I can have word forms populated into the database as they come in (instead of as one bulk action).

    The main issue I am running across is that I am using command controls to create text fields, date fields and checkboxes. The other macros I have seen copy the form fields directly into excel, importing an actual checkbox "character" into my excel instead of just a value that I can actually use in excel (i.e. 1,0 or Y,N).

    Therefore I would like help creating a macro that can:
    -Identify a specific file (or active word sheet) and copy filled in word content controls into excel
    -Paste the data into a new row in excel
    -Make sure that the checkboxes are copied as values (ideally 0,1) instead of as actual textbox symbols

    I have attached a copy of a sample form. I cannot create the form in excel because the people I am sending it to won't want to fill out a form in excel (they prefer word).

    Thank you very much
