Default Using Custom Properties

I have create a few custom properties, and now would like to use them as
fields in my document.

But I cannot see the in the field drop down menu.

Firstly can I do this, and how?

Many Thanks
PaulR

The field you are looking for is the DOCPROPERTY field. It shows up on my
list. Otherwise simply press Ctrl-F9 and type DOCPROPERTY "PropertyName"
then press F9. PropertyName is the name of your custom property.
