Eliminate merge fields

Hello:
I’ve loaded all the merge fields of a document in a drop down list using this
doc.MailMerge.GetFieldNames();
but the problem is it also includes table name like

«TableStart:Customer» «Phone» «TableEnd:Customer »

I need to load the variable <<phone>> but it also loads <<TableStart:Customer>> and <<TableEnd:Customer>>. How can I eliminate those?? Is there any way??
thanks-

Hi
Thank you for your inquiry. I think that you can try using the following code to solve this problem.

Document doc = new Document("in.doc");
string[] fields = doc.MailMerge.GetFieldNames();
for (int i = 0; i < fields.Length; i++)
{
    if (!fields[i].ToLower().Contains("tablestart") && !fields[i].ToLower().Contains("tableend"))
    {
        DropDownList1.Items.Add(fields[i]);
    }
}

Please let me know if you would like to know something else.
Best regards.
