Hi
I have Sheet.(Section A) that has text in column "E", this text would start in row 10, and could have numerous rows, say 30. I am trying to extract the text in the cells in Column E, open a template in word and insert into a bookmark. I have mastered the code to extract a cell, open the word template, and insert into a bookmark. That is where my knowledge ends.

This question is twofold.
I would like to try and understand the code to extract more than one cell in column E, it would start in r,10 and could finish in r,30.
Also i have about 10 sheets which have the same attributes with regard to same column and same cells, but obviously different text.

I have started some code but all it does is open 2 documents.
[
Sub ExportButton()

Dim objWord As Object
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Section A")
Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
objWord.Visible = True
objWord.Activate
objWord.Documents.Open "C:\Users\Desktop\L2Template3.docx"
With objWord.ActiveDocument
.Bookmarks("DescriptionField").Range.Text = ws.Range("E10").Value

End With
With objWord.ActiveDocument
.Bookmarks("NameField").Range.Text = ws.Range("E12").Value
End With

Set objWord = Nothing

Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Section B")
Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
objWord.Visible = True
objWord.Activate
objWord.Documents.Open "C:\Users\Desktop\L2Template3.docx"
With objWord.ActiveDocument
.Bookmarks("StephenField").Range.Text = ws.Range("E10").Value

End With
With objWord.ActiveDocument
.Bookmarks("JohnField").Range.Text = ws.Range("E12").Value
End With

Set objWord = Nothing

End Sub
]
hope someone can help
 
For sheets SectionA and SectionB... what about SectionC to SectionI? What about additional row items? Dave

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Hi Dave
I've decided to change the way this works, I've created an example with one sheet called Draft Report and each cell is associated with a bookmark. Even though its restrictive its easy to code. Thanks
.Bookmarks("RelPartyDisc").Range.Text = ws.Range("E12").Value
.Bookmarks("Weather").Range.Text = ws.Range("E14").Value
.Bookmarks("StatusProp").Range.Text = ws.Range("E16").Value

Not real sure what you mean but if you want to adjust the font/format of the worksheet, the link below has an overview and may help. If not, it would probably be better to start a new thread with a new topic. Dave
