## Examples

Shows how to insert a field into a document using a field code.

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

Field field = builder.InsertField("DATE \\@ \"dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy\"");

Assert.That(field.Type, Is.EqualTo(FieldType.FieldDate));
Assert.That(field.GetFieldCode(), Is.EqualTo("DATE \\@ \"dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy\""));

// This overload of the InsertField method automatically updates inserted fields.
Assert.That((DateTime.Today - DateTime.Parse(field.Result)).Days <= 1, Is.True);
```

Shows how to work with a FieldStart node.

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

FieldDate field = (FieldDate)builder.InsertField(FieldType.FieldDate, true);
field.Format.DateTimeFormat = "dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy";
field.Update();

FieldChar fieldStart = field.Start;

Assert.That(fieldStart.FieldType, Is.EqualTo(FieldType.FieldDate));
Assert.That(fieldStart.IsDirty, Is.EqualTo(false));
Assert.That(fieldStart.IsLocked, Is.EqualTo(false));

// Retrieve the facade object which represents the field in the document.
field = (FieldDate)fieldStart.GetField();

Assert.That(field.IsLocked, Is.EqualTo(false));
Assert.That(field.GetFieldCode(), Is.EqualTo(" DATE  \\@ \"dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy\""));

// Update the field to show the current date.
field.Update();
```
