Hello.
I'm trying to create a code that the user can eliminate the bookmarks on a word document throught a userform but everytime I click on Finish_Button in order to delete the bookmarks that are listed at listbox2 on the word file and save changes it says object required


VBA Code:
Private Sub Add_Click()
    Dim selectedItem As String
    
    ' Check if an item is selected in ListBox1
    If Me.ListBox1.ListIndex <> -1 Then
        selectedItem = Me.ListBox1.List(Me.ListBox1.ListIndex)
        
        ' Add the selected item to ListBox2
        Me.ListBox2.AddItem selectedItem
        
        ' Remove the selected item from ListBox1
        Me.ListBox1.RemoveItem Me.ListBox1.ListIndex
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub Undo_Click()
    Dim selectedItem As String
    
    ' Check if an item is selected in ListBox2
    If Me.ListBox2.ListIndex <> -1 Then
        selectedItem = Me.ListBox2.List(Me.ListBox2.ListIndex)
        
        ' Add the selected item to ListBox1
        Me.ListBox1.AddItem selectedItem
        
        ' Remove the selected item from ListBox2
        Me.ListBox2.RemoveItem Me.ListBox2.ListIndex
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub Cancel_Click()
    'Close the Userform
    Unload Me
End Sub

Private Sub Finish_Click()
    Dim bookmarkName As String
    Dim bm As Object
    
    On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
    
    ' Loop through each item in ListBox2 and remove the corresponding bookmark from the Word document
    For i = 0 To Me.ListBox2.ListCount - 1
        bookmarkName = Me.ListBox2.List(i)
        If wdDoc.Bookmarks.Exists(bookmarkName) Then
            wdDoc.Bookmarks(bookmarkName).Range.Delete
        End If
    Next i
    
    ' Save and close the Word document
    wdDoc.Save
    wdDoc.Close
    
    ' Close the Word application (if it was created in UserForm_Initialize)
    If wdAppCreated Then
        wdApp.Quit
    End If
    
    ' Close the Userform
    Unload Me
    
    Exit Sub
    
ErrorHandler:
    MsgBox "An error has occurred: " & Err.Description
End Sub

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
    Dim wdApp As Object
    Dim wdDoc As Object
    Dim bm As Object
    
    On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
    
    ' Try to get an existing instance of Word, or create a new instance if none is found
    On Error Resume Next
    Set wdApp = GetObject(, "Word.Application")
    If Err.Number <> 0 Then
        Set wdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
    End If
    On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
    
    ' Open the specified Word document
    Set wdDoc = wdApp.Documents.Open("C:\Temp.print\wordTemplate.docx")
    
    ' Populate the ListBox with the bookmarks
    For Each bm In wdDoc.Bookmarks
        If Left(bm.Name, 4) <> "logo" And Left(bm.Name, 6) <> "footer" Then
            Me.ListBox1.AddItem Replace(bm.Name, "_", " ")
        End If
    Next bm
    
    ' Set a flag indicating whether the Word application was created in this routine
    wdAppCreated = (Err.Number <> 0)
    
    Exit Sub
    
ErrorHandler:
    MsgBox "An error has occurred: " & Err.Description
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Waterfall charts in Excel?
Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.
Remove these from your initialize code...
Code:
Dim wdApp As Object
 Dim wdDoc As Object
and place them at the top of your userform module (ie. make them available to all your subs in the userform code module). HTH. Dave
