Hi,

I presently have coding that will create the word document but I was wondering if it is possible to have coding that will help with the formatting of the Word document and the removal of bookmarks that are no used (no information in the corresponding cell in excel)

the person fills information in specific cells in excel and the information is then moved to a word document at specific locations identified by bookmarks....

all cells in excel are not mandatory to be filled with information so that create gaps in the word document (unused bookmarks). I there a way to eliminate those gaps?

Code: 
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()


    Dim wdApp As Word.Application
    Dim theString As String
    Dim theObject As Object
    Set wdApp = New Word.Application
    Set theObject = CreateObject("new:{1C3B4210-F441-11CE-B9EA-00AA006B1A69}")
    
    With wdApp
        .Visible = True
        .Activate
        
        .Documents.Add "M:\HR\National Transfer Inventory\Indeterminate_Appointment_Template_.DOCX"
        
        Sheet3.Activate
        
        theString = Range("C5").Value         'cast to string
        theObject.SetText theString
        theObject.PutInClipboard    'copy from cell B2 to clipboard.
        .Selection.Goto what:=-1, Name:="Incumbent"
        .Selection.Paste        'paste from the clipboard to the Word Doc.

' several other lines of coding the same as above....then

    
    If Range("A23") = "x" Then
    theString = Worksheets("Sheet4").Cells(1, "A").Value        'cast to string
        theObject.SetText theString
        theObject.PutInClipboard    'copy from cell B2 to clipboard.
        With .Selection
        .Goto what:=-1, Name:="ManTraining"
        .BoldRun
        .Font.Size = 12
        .Font.Name = "Arial"
        .TypeText "MANDATORY TRAINING"
        .BoldRun
        .TypeParagraph
        .Font.Name = "Arial"
        .Font.Size = 12
        .Paste        'paste from the clipboard to the Word Doc.
        .TypeParagraph
        End With
    End If
    If Range("A24") = "x" Then
    theString = Worksheets("Sheet4").Cells(2, "A").Value        'cast to string
        theObject.SetText theString
        theObject.PutInClipboard    'copy from cell B2 to clipboard.
