Remove Fields

Sometimes it is necessary to remove a field from the document. This may occur when it is to be replaced with a different field type or when the field is no longer needed in the document. For example a TOC field when saving to HTML.

To remove a field inserted into a document using DocumentBuilder.InsertField, use the returned Field object, which provides a convenient Remove method for easily removing the field from the document.

The following code example shows how to remove a field from the document:

// For complete examples and data files, please go to https://github.com/aspose-words/Aspose.Words-for-Java
Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Various fields.docx");
        
Field field = doc.getRange().getFields().get(0);
field.remove();

You can download the sample file of this example from Aspose.Words GitHub.
