Shows how to use the LASTSAVEDBY field.

Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

// If we create a document in Microsoft Word, it will have the user's name in the "Last saved by" built-in property.
// If we make a document programmatically, this property will be null, and we will need to assign a value. 
doc.BuiltInDocumentProperties.LastSavedBy = "John Doe";

// We can use the LASTSAVEDBY field to display the value of this property in the document.
FieldLastSavedBy field = (FieldLastSavedBy)builder.InsertField(FieldType.FieldLastSavedBy, true);

Assert.AreEqual(" LASTSAVEDBY ", field.GetFieldCode());
Assert.AreEqual("John Doe", field.Result);

doc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "Field.LASTSAVEDBY.docx");
