Hi,

Is it possible to store bookmark name in variable?

- The think is i had a BookMarkObject by using bookmark object i can able to select book mark names. When i select any bookmark name i want to store in one variable.

Is it really possible to do it? Just i need answer otherwise if it is possible how can i overcome this.

Roland,

Thanks for your response sorry to get back you lately.  As per your code i can see only the name which i given for bookmark in input box(i.e., vBookVar). There is empty value in vBookMarkName variable it doesn't hold any value.

The think is when i select book mark name from bookmark object then i want to store the particular bookmark name in variable vBookMarkName.

Hi Jaqq.,

There is empty value in vBookMarkName variable it doesn't hold any value. --> yes, this is true. You never used it. In your "Save"-Button you coded "=vBookVar". So the Name is (correctly) within that var.

To see where and how you used your vars at all: see settings --> var overview and expression overview

Here is the code...

You need to amend it based on your fields and this is just a starting point. you can improve it for sure.

Sub CurrentSelection()

Set MyCurrentSelection=ActiveDocument.GetCurrentSelections

S = MyCurrentSelection.Selections

MyVarID = MyCurrentSelection.VarId

    For i=lbound(S) to ubound(S)

        ActiveDocument.Variables("MyVar").SetContent S(i), true

    Next

    Set MyVariable  = ActiveDocument.Variables("vBM")

    MyBookMarks = ActiveDocument.GetDocBookmarkNames

    IF ActiveDocument.Variables("MyVar").GetContent.String = "A" Then

        bm = MyBookMarks(0)

        MyVariable.SetContent bm,True

    ElseIF ActiveDocument.Variables("MyVar").GetContent.String = "A, B" Then

         bm = MyBookMarks(1)

        MyVariable.SetContent bm,True

    ELSE

        bm = MyBookMarks(2)

        MyVariable.SetContent bm,True

     End IF

End Sub

* Note : Please run the code on "OnAnySelect" Event under Triggers and under Document Properties
