Aspose Words Document doesnt load my FormFields

Question

I'm having an issue right now with document creation. I've created a Word docx document containing several MergeField elements. My document content's is saved to my db, and later on I retrieve it somewhere else in my code using MemoryStream myStream = new MemoryStream(byte[]); Document doc = new Document(myStream);

When I try to access my form merge fields using doc.Range.FormFields, the list is empty. I'm wondering why because I can still see the formating of my MergeField elements when I do doc.Range.GetText();

Could you please help me figure this out. I've been struggling for some time. See below for the content of my document after I access its Range's text. I've also attached a screenshot of my content where we can see my MERGE FIELD elements' tags.

I'm afraid, in such scenarios, we might require some documents and other details from your end in order to investigate the issue; we might also need to log the issues and then follow up, in such cases. And this is something we can do via our own support forums.

You may contact our support team via Aspose.Words forum and discuss this matter in detail.
