Hi,

I am working on a project where I need to automate MS Word and create some Documents.

I have no problems creating a word application or document object, but I do have a problem wtih the Bookmarks.

I have the following code:

object oMissing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
object oEndOfDoc = "\\endofdoc";
object oTemplate = "C:\\temp\\Invoice.dot";
object oBookMark = "Name";

Word._Application oWord;
Word._Document oDoc;

oWord = new Word.Application();

oWord.Visible = true;

oDoc = oWord.Documents.Add(ref oTemplate, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing);

oDoc.Bookmarks.Item(ref oBookMark).Range.Text = "TEXT GOES HERE";

However when I build my project, I get the following error:

'Word.Bookmarks' does not contain a definition for 'Item'

Now on all the examples I have seen the above Bookmark code is used, but why do I get that error ? The Intellisense menu VS.Net pops up does not include an Item definition.

Am I not referencing something correctly ?

Thanks

Andrew

Andrew,

I'm using the Office XP PIA's
VS Net 2003
..Net Framework 1.1
Office XP (2002)

The following method is working for me. It was derived with a lot of help
from this group and a number of links including ...

pBookmarkName, string pNewText)
{
object missingValue = Type.Missing;
object oBookmarkName = pBookmarkName;

try
{
Word.Range rng = pMsWordDoc.Bookmarks.Item(ref
oBookmarkName).Range;
rng.Text = pNewText;
rng.Font.Bold = 0;
rng.Font.Color = Word.WdColor.wdColorBlue;
object oRng = rng;
pMsWordDoc.Bookmarks.Add(pBookmarkName, ref oRng);
}
catch
{
string sMsg = "\nUnknown or Unhandled bookmark encountered:
" + pBookmarkName + "\n\n";
MessageBox.Show(sMsg.ToString(),"Problem with a
bookmark:",MessageBoxButtons.OK,MessageBoxIcon.Warning);
}
}

Best wishes,
