title: Extract data from content controls in Word to Excel
body: <p>I have a Word document that is "form-fillable", i.e. it has content control objects in it such as rich text and date picker content controls. I am looking to extract the data from specific fields into Excel. For example, every form has the project title, start date, and manager. I would like 1 row for that form with those three pieces of data. Eventually this will need to be done for a few hundred of these forms every few months, but for now I'd like to just start with one.</p>
  
  <p>I envision having a button on the Excel sheet that will run VBA code to pull the data from the Word document, and populate the proper cells in the sheet. With the filepath for the Word doc being specified by the user.</p>
  
  <p>I am new to VBA. How do I point my code at the right file, and then again at the specific field I need? Do I give the fields titles in the Word doc?</p>
  
  <p>This is in MS Office '13</p>
