I don't think you necessarily need to use bookmarks at all. If you know
which cell of the table in Shane.doc (i.e. the row & column number) you want
to take text from, you can retrieve it using the Cell(row,
column).Range.Text property of the table.
Similarly, if you know which cell you want to put the text into in SOF.dot,
you can assign a string to the Text property of the relevant Cell there.

I'm going to send you off in a different direction by suggesting that you
use a multi column listbox on the userform that you populate with the data
from Shane.doc and then, as Jonathon suggests, you grab the information from
each column in the listbox for the selected record and use it to populate
the respective cells in the document created from SOF.dot.
The following information will give you an idea how to go about this.
This routine loads a listbox with client details stored in a table in a
separate
document (which makes it easy to maintain with additions, deletions etc.),
that document being saved as Clients.Doc for the following code.
On the UserForm, have a list box (ListBox1) and a Command Button
(CommandButton1) and use the following code in the UserForm_Initialize() and
the CommandButton1_Click() routines
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim sourcedoc As Document, i As Integer, j As Integer, myitem As Range,
m As Long, n As Long
' Modify the path in the following line so that it matches where you
saved Clients.doc
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
' Open the file containing the client details
Set sourcedoc = Documents.Open(FileName:="e:\worddocs\Clients.doc")
' Get the number or clients = number of rows in the table of client
details less one
i = sourcedoc.Tables(1).Rows.Count - 1
' Get the number of columns in the table of client details
j = sourcedoc.Tables(1).Columns.Count
' Set the number of columns in the Listbox to match
' the number of columns in the table of client details
ListBox1.ColumnCount = j
' Define an array to be loaded with the client data
Dim MyArray() As Variant
'Load client data into MyArray
ReDim MyArray(i, j)
For n = 0 To j - 1
For m = 0 To i - 1
Set myitem = sourcedoc.Tables(1).Cell(m + 2, n + 1).Range
myitem.End = myitem.End - 1
MyArray(m, n) = myitem.Text
Next m
Next n
' Load data into ListBox1
ListBox1.List() = MyArray
' Close the file containing the client details
sourcedoc.Close SaveChanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges
End Sub
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim i As Integer, Addressee As String
Addressee = ""
For i = 1 To ListBox1.ColumnCount
ListBox1.BoundColumn = i
Addressee = Addressee & ListBox1.Value & vbCr
Next i
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Addressee").Range.InsertAfter Addressee
UserForm2.Hide
End Sub
The Initialize statement will populate the listbox with the data from the
table and then when a client is selected in from the list and the command
button is clicked, the information for that client will be inserted into a
bookmark in the document. You may want to vary the manner in which it is
inserted to suit our exact requirements, but hopefully this will get you
started.
To make it easy for you, the code has been written so that it will deal with
any number of clients and any number of details about each client. It
assumes that the first row of the table containing the client details is a
header row.

Doug,
I attempted to utilize your suggested code -- the List box code:
========================
On the UserForm, have a list box (ListBox1) and a Command Button
(CommandButton1) and use the following code in the UserForm_Initialize() and
the CommandButton1_Click() routines
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim sourcedoc As Document, i As Integer, j As Integer, myitem As Range,
m As Long, n As Long
' Modify the path in the following line so that it matches where you
saved Clients.doc
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
' Open the file containing the client details
Set sourcedoc = Documents.Open(FileName:="e:\worddocs\Clients.doc")
' Get the number or clients = number of rows in the table of client
details less one ....
===========================
(but couldn't get it to work) -- as far a functionality goes, I'd really
like to persue the my initial schema -- whereas, the user would make his or
her selection from checkboxes and radio buttons on a form, and data from a
corresponding Word Table would populate the Active Document.
I was hoping to be able to select a certain ROW from an underlying Word
Table and insert it into the Active Document, but I haven't figured out how
to master the RANGE issue you alluded to (any help would be greately
appreciated)
As a work-around, I broke the rows up into separate work documents and used
the following code (the problem I'm having with this is that it when I
select multiple checkboxes, the 1st selection performs ideal, but the second
selection nests within Cell 1 of the created table (any thoughts on how to
prevent this?)
Here's my code:
Dim sFilePath As String (I cut and pasted this code -- I really don't see
where I need this line -- the codes runs fine when I rem it out)
Private Sub cbxMattresses_Exit()
If Me.cbxSSLNotIncluded.Value = True Then
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("MattressInsert").Range.InsertAfter
MattressInsert '***MattressInsert is a bookmark in my Active Document
sFilePath = ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate.Path &
"\LineItems_Modified.doc"
Selection.InsertFile sFilePath, , False, False
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
'Selection.InsertFile sFilePath, Cells(1), False, False
Selection.InsertBreak Type:=wdSectionBreakNextPage
End If
End Sub
Private Sub cbxPillows_Click()
If Me.cbxPillows.Value = True Then
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("PillowsInsert").Select
sFilePath = ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate.Path &
"\LineItems_Modified.doc"
Selection.InsertFile sFilePath, , False, False
'cbxNotIncluded.Value = False
End If
End Sub
Private Sub cbxLinen_Click()
If Me.cbxLinen.Value = True Then
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("LinenInsert").Select
sFilePath = ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate.Path &
"\LineItems_Modified.doc"
Selection.InsertFile sFilePath, , False, False
'cbxNotIncluded.Value = False
End If
End Sub
Private Sub cbxNotIncluded_Click()
'cbxNotIncluded.Value = False
End Sub
Private Sub cmdCancel_Click()
Unload Me
End Sub
Private Sub cmdOK_Click()
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Me.Hide
End Sub
Private Sub frmSSL_Initialize()
Me.cbxNotIncluded.Value = True
Me.cbxMattresses.Value = Null
Me.cbxPillows.Value = Null
Me.cbxLinen.Value = Null
End Sub
Here's what I have now -- I've broken the tables down into individual

Doug,
You seemed rather emphatic about this approach -- I'm sure you derrive a
certain amount of pleasure when someone is successful in using your advice
(as would I) :)
When I run the code you suggested, I get a Run Time Error 5941 -- "The
requested member of the collection does not exist." -- I believe it has
something to do with this line in the code:
' Modify the path in the following line so that it matches where you _
Saved LineItems.doc
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
What am I doing wrong here? I modified the path to my sourcedoc in the next
line:
' Open the file containing the client details
Set sourcedoc = Documents.Open(FileName:="E:\LineItems.doc")
Here's my code for UserForm1 of DougListBoxTest.doc:
=========================
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim i As Integer, Product As String
Product = ""
For i = 1 To ListBox1.ColumnCount
ListBox1.BoundColumn = i
Product = Product & ListBox1.Value & vbCr
Next i
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Product").Range.InsertAfter Product
UserForm1.Hide
End Sub
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim sourcedoc As Document, i As Integer, j As Integer, myitem As Range, _
m As Long, n As Long
' Modify the path in the following line so that it matches where you _
Saved LineItems.doc
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
' Open the file containing the client details
Set sourcedoc = Documents.Open(FileName:="E:\LineItems.doc")
' Get the number of Products = number of rows in the table of Product _
details less one
i = sourcedoc.Tables(1).Rows.Count - 1
' Get the number of columns in the table of Product details
j = sourcedoc.Tables(1).Columns.Count
' Set the number of columns in the Listbox to match
' the number of columns in the table of Product details
ListBox1.ColumnCount = j
' Define an array to be loaded with the Product data
Dim MyArray() As Variant
'Load Product data into MyArray
ReDim MyArray(i, j)
For n = 0 To j - 1
For m = 0 To i - 1
Set myitem = sourcedoc.Tables(1).Cell(m + 2, n + 1).Range
myitem.End = myitem.End - 1
MyArray(m, n) = myitem.Text
Next m
Next n
' Load data into ListBox1
ListBox1.List() = MyArray
' Close the file containing the client details
sourcedoc.Close SaveChanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges
End Sub
