hi @QFabian 

is it possible to pass multiple fields within one select in field action?

i would to pass  fields dynamically.  search for a string in multiple fields dynamically.

I think wih a macro you can do that, and then create one external macro action.

This could be a base , and you can add an array or something to produce the required automation 

Sub SelectFields

ActiveDocument.Fields("Field1").Select "A"

ActiveDocument.Fields("Field2").Select "B"

ActiveDocument.Fields("Field3").Select "C"
End SUb

Hi @QFabian 

Thanks for recommending the macro. 

I'm not it will fit my requirement. here is my requirement

Inputbox = "Hello World"

List box(led checkboxes) with Field names as values(Title, Summary, Description) created with inline table.

**actual table have original columns**

  *************

select any values from above list box

(Title) or (Title + Summary ) or ALL

then On click of a button, if hello world exists in either of the selected original columns then filter down to those rows and display in table box.

**** Dynamic search of a given string in selected fields and apply filter *****
