Hello,

I have the below code that will open PDF file in Word and copy the full document into excel and then do a search in column A, but this does not work for all PDF files. There are some PDF files where the data is in another column and named differently.

Once the PDF file is open in word, could I instead do various word searches and copy that paragraph/table data into excel cell as it is towards the end of my code?

VBA Code:
Sub PDF_Extraction()
'Macro opens PDF Files as an editable Word Document
'Copies the contents of the Word document
'Pastes the Clipboard contents into Excel

    Dim myWorksheet As Worksheet
    Dim wordApp As Object

    Dim registryKey As String
    Dim wordVersion As String

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
