Hi,

I am trying to parse through a word doc using vb.net and retrieve the names
of all the bookmarks

I need to be able to do this without knowing how many bookmarks they may be

Thanks in advance

Mike Fellows

This is how to do it in VBA, you should be able to translate into VB.NET
without too much trouble

To get the bookmarks in alphabetical order of name

Dim oBookmark as Bookmark
For Each oBookmark in ActiveDocument.Bookmarks
Debug.Print oBookmark.Name
Next oBookmark

To get the bookmarks in the order they appear in the body of the document

Dim oBookmark as Bookmark
For Each oBookmark in ActiveDocument.Range.Bookmarks
Debug.Print oBookmark.Name
Next oBookmark
