Array for Word bookmarks and sheet names

Question

I've been doing some VBA stuff lately but i don't know what directions to take. Someone here helped me with the copy to Word, i've lost the topic but thanks a lot! Is there a better way to read in the BookMarks and how can i get them to link the right sheet in this line;

MyArray(i) 
'needs to go in to;
wb.worksheet(Myarray(i)).range("A1:BA3000")

I've been spending way to many hours on the array part.

Private Sub ranges()

Dim NamedRange As name

    Set wb = ThisWorkbook 'Workbooks("C:\Excel")
    Set aWs = ActiveSheet
'array with names of the word bookmarks

Answer 1

There are 2 ways that you could populate your array:

Method 1:

myArray = Split("Tappunten test1 Groslijst ...", " ")

Method 2:

Sub LoopThroughBookmarks()
    Dim oBookmark As Bookmark
    Dim myArray() As String
    ReDim Preserve myArray(0)
    For Each oBookmark In ActiveDocument.Bookmarks
        ReDim Preserve myArray(UBound(myArray) + 1)
        myArray(UBound(myArray) - 1) = oBookmark.Name
    Next
End Sub

---

The bookmarks will be entered in the order in which they occur in the document, you may want to add some validation for the bookmarks so that you don't add some by mistake.

I've no idea how to match the bookmarks to the 2nd array :-/

Answer 2

I've ended up using these 2 pieces of code;

   Sub Copy_to_word()
Dim wdApp As New Word.Application
Dim wdDoc As Word.Document
Dim i As Long
Dim names As Range

  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  Application.EnableEvents = False

    'location of the word template
Const StrDocNm As String = "C:\Word template V2.0.dotx"
If Dir(StrDocNm) = "" Then Debug.Print "file missing"
If Dir(StrDocNm) = MsgBox "Template not found"
If Dir(StrDocNm) = "" Then Exit Sub
   'Could probebly make it a bit neather
Set wdDoc = wdApp.Documents.Add(Template:=StrDocNm)
wdApp.Visible = True
   'All the named ranges have the same name as the bookmark
With ThisWorkbook
  For i = 1 To .names.Count

On Error GoTo LosseCell:
    .names(i).RefersToRange.Copy
    Debug.Print .names(i).Name
        'When the range is copied it starts the next macro.
        'if there's an error it goes tot the next name range 
    Call PasteBookmark(wdDoc, .names(i).Name)
LosseCell:

  Next
End With


Set wdDoc = Nothing: Set wdApp = Nothing
   'because it takes some time it had the events and screenupdating turned off
  Application.ScreenUpdating = True
  Application.EnableEvents = True


End Sub

The second marcro is the part that pastes the range in to word;

Sub PasteBookmark(wdDoc As Word.Document, strBkMk As String)
Dim wdRng As Word.Range

With wdDoc
  Application.ScreenUpdating = True 'not sure if this helps to be honest
  Application.EnableEvents = True   'not sure if this helps to be honest

  If .Bookmarks.Exists(strBkMk) Then

    Set wdRng = .Bookmarks(strBkMk).Range
 wdRng.Paste
    .Bookmarks.Add strBkMk, wdRng

  End If
End With
Set wdRng = Nothing
End Sub

Because the ranges vary in size i also have a macro that resizes the named ranges that can vary in row count;

Sub RangesAanpassen()

  Dim NmdRngNames As Variant
  Dim myLastRow As Long
  Dim StrWsNaam As String
  Dim strRangeNaam As String
  Dim namRange As Name
  Dim wsRange As Worksheet
  Dim n As Variant

  'the ranges that need to be resized are named the same as the sheets there
  'on. It gave a lot of troubles because the sheets had names like "D01". 
  'Had to change all of them to a name that didn't look like a cell.

  NmdRngNames = Array("D_03", "D_01", "J_01", "_6.4.3_Temperatuurmetingen", 
  "WTB", "Tappunten", "_6.4.2_Tappunten_inv", "Voorblad")

  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  Application.EnableEvents = False


For Each n In NmdRngNames

strRangeNaam = n
On Error GoTo NextN: when the range is empty a "no object" error shows.
Set namRange = ActiveWorkbook.names.Item(strRangeNaam)
Set wsRange = Range(strRangeNaam).Worksheet

  With wsRange
      'the last cell can be anywhere in columns A to Z. 
    myLastRow = .Columns("A:Z").Find(What:="*", LookIn:=xlValues, _ 
    SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, _
    SearchOrder:=xlByRows).Row
  End With
  With namRange
    .RefersTo = wsRange.Range(wsRange.Cells(1, 1), _
                wsRange.Cells(myLastRow, 1))
  End With
NextN:

Next

  Application.ScreenUpdating = True
  Application.EnableEvents = True


End Sub
