vba code copy multiple excel charts to word

Question

I'm using the VBA code here to copy all the charts and tables from an excel workbook into a new word document from a template which is pre-formatted with bookmarks (labeled Book1, Book2 etc). Unfortunately i only have a few tables but around 20 charts and if i leave a blank in the summary table for the ranges i get

Run-time error '5101':
Application-defined or object defined error

and it only copies and pastes over the charts and table before the gap.

This is my excel summary table:

Any idea how i can modify the code to prevent this?

Sorry - i'm a complete VBA noob

full working code is below. I've modified the code so it pastes charts as enhanched metafiles because that's what my boss wants.

Answer 1

There are multiple problems with this code, including the fact that if you had more ranges than charts it would only copy as many ranges as there was charts.

But to quickly fix your problem, replace

 'Tell Word to goto the bookmark assigned to the variable BookMarkRange
appWrd.Selection.Goto What:=wdGoToBookmark, Name:=BookMarkRange 

 'Copy the data from Thisworkbook
ThisWorkbook.Sheets(SheetRange).UsedRange.Copy 

 'Paste into Word
appWrd.Selection.Paste 

 'Tell Word to goto the bookmark assigned to the variable BookMarkChart
appWrd.Selection.Goto What:=wdGoToBookmark, Name:=BookMarkChart 

 'Copy the data from Thisworkbook
ThisWorkbook.Sheets(SheetChart).ChartObjects(1).Copy 

 'Paste into Word
appWrd.Selection.Paste 

with

if len (BookMarkRange) > 0 then
   'Tell Word to goto the bookmark assigned to the variable BookMarkRange
  appWrd.Selection.Goto What:=wdGoToBookmark, Name:=BookMarkRange 

   'Copy the data from Thisworkbook
  ThisWorkbook.Sheets(SheetRange).UsedRange.Copy 

   'Paste into Word
  appWrd.Selection.Paste 
end if

if len(BookMarkChart) > 0 then
   'Tell Word to goto the bookmark assigned to the variable BookMarkChart
  appWrd.Selection.Goto What:=wdGoToBookmark, Name:=BookMarkChart 

   'Copy the data from Thisworkbook
  ThisWorkbook.Sheets(SheetChart).ChartObjects(1).Copy 

   'Paste into Word
  appWrd.Selection.Paste 
end if
