I have created 2 macro's in excel that open a word .docm document and need to do 2 things:

1. do a mail merge (sub creëer contract)
2. delete bookmarks (call word macro's based on excel values)

Seperately they work as should, but I have difficulty putting them together.
I tried calling one from the other and just pasting part of the code of the second one to the first one, but without succes.
Any help in the right direction would be much appreciated, I'm clearly missing something obvious.:confused:

Code is below:

First Macro

Sub Creëer_contract()
'
' Creëer_contract Macro
'

On Error Resume Next
Dim wdOutputNaam, wdInputnaam As String
Dim wdDoc As Object

Sheets("invuldata").Select
wdOutputNaam = Range("namefull").Value & "_" & Range("creationdate").Value & ".docx"
wdInputnaam = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\templates\AGR arbeidsovereenkomst\Arbeidsovereenkomst.docm"


' open the mail merge layout file

Set wdDoc = GetObject(wdInputnaam, "Word.document")

With wdDoc.mailmerge
.MainDocumentType = wdFormLetters
.Destination = wdSendToNewDocument
.SuppressBlankLines = True
.Execute Pause:=False
End With

wdDoc.Application.Visible = True
wdDoc.Application.ActiveDocument.SaveAs Filename:="c:\HRapplicatie\" & wdOutputNaam


' cleanup
wdDoc.Close Savechanges:=False
Set wdDoc = Nothing
wdDoc.Application.wdOutputName.Visible = True

End Sub

And the second one:

Code:
Sub deletewordbookmarks()


    Dim wdInputnaam As String
    Dim wdOutputNaam As String
    Dim WD As Object

  
    wdInputnaam = "C:\HRapplicatie\templates\AGR arbeidsovereenkomst\Arbeidsovereenkomst.docm"
    wdOutputNaam = Range("namefull").Value & "_" & Range("creationdate").Value & ".docx"

      Set WD = CreateObject("Word.Application")
      WD.Documents.Open "C:\HRapplicatie\templates\AGR arbeidsovereenkomst\Arbeidsovereenkomst.docm"
      
 ' call word macros based on excel values
      
      If Range("advnumber").Value = " " Then
      WD.Run "Project.verwijderbookmarks.verwijderadv"
      End If
      
      If Range("expenses").Value = "0" Then
      WD.Run "Project.verwijderbookmarks.verwijderforfait"
      End If
      
      If Range("car").Value <> "ja" Then
      WD.Run "Project.verwijderbookmarks.verwijderbedrijfswagen"
      WD.Application.Visible = True
      End If
      
      If Range("noncompete").Value = "nee" Then
      WD.Run "Project.verwijderbookmarks.verwijdernoncompete"
      WD.Application.Visible = True
      End If
   
      If Range("bonus").Value = "0" Then
      WD.Run "Project.verwijderbookmarks.verwijderbonus"
      WD.Application.Visible = True
      End If
     
     
 ' show and save output file
 
 WD.Application.Visible = True
 WD.Application.ActiveDocument.SaveAs Filename:="c:\HRapplicatie\" & wdOutputNaam
  
  


End Sub

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
