"corrupted" formfields in word documents

M

I'm developping a program in C# that interacts with Word by COM components to
build documents dynamically.
I (sometimes) have troubles with formfields in documents : when I try to
reach them (by tabulating when the document is protected), the focus jumps to
any further field. And when I double-click on the field to open its
properties dialog box, I get the following message " this command is
unavailable because the form field was not inserted with the forms toolbar or
by using the insert form field dialog box" : but in fact it did! the field
comes from another word document that we opened, copied content and pasted
into the current one. but it's not recognized as a word one.

And that trouble appears sometimes, I don't really know when, i can't
reproduce it every time...

I first thought the document was corrupted and tried to repair it with the
"open&repair" functionnality in word 2003, but no way.

Can somebody help me please?
