Hello.

In Word Object Model there is a missed method ToggleEditPlaceholderText of
ContentControl object.

Method description: Switches the state between editing the placeholder text
for a content control and saving the placeholder text, and returns a Long
that represents the state.

Please see Word Help or MSDN
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb256833.aspx

But this method really does not exist!!! It is not recognised by VBA editor.
Also OLE/COM Object Viewer proofs that there is no such method in Word 12.0
Object Library!!!

Please help.
Thanks.

I don't know what sort of "help" you're expecting. Clearly the documentation
is wrong, either because the method was never implemented or because it was
withdrawn. In any case, it seems unnecessary; use the SetPlaceholderText
method to make whatever changes you need.
