How to check a form for the presence of a field

[Timothy L Anderson]

Hello,

I have a situation where a user configured pdf form is being filled in. In some circumstances certain form fields may not be present in the pdf form. I need to be able to check for them before i try to access them. I tried a couple of methods, including checking for a null return from the pdfLoadedformFieldCollection, but this throws an exception. I could wrap the code block in a try and except, but i would rather see if there was a way to check for the existence.

Oh there is an Contains method on the Items property, however it does not look to take the field name, only a pdfField.
