Hello,

I hope you all are well.

I want to insert text from an excel-cell (B16) into a word document. The text should be inserted after the respective bookmark ("B1").


I have written the following code:


VBA Code:
Sub InsertAfterBookmark()


Dim objWord As Object

Dim ws As Worksheet



Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1)

Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")

objWord.Visible = True

objWord.Documents.Open ("path of word document”)

With objWord.ActiveDocument

    .Bookmarks("B1").Range.Text = ws.Range("B16").Value

End With

Set objWord = Nothing


End Sub


Sadly, the macro inserts the the at the bookmark, rather than after the bookmark B1.

Do you have an idea how I can fix my code to insert the text after the bookmark?


Best regards and many thanks in advance

Sarah

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
Replace this line
.Bookmarks("B1").Range.Text = ws.Range("B16").Value
with
VBA Code:
.Bookmarks("B1").Range.InsertAfter ws.Range("B16").Value
