Either create a second bookmark in the template and add another line of
code:

ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("newbookmarkname").Range.InsertBefore Format(Order,
"00#")

Or in the location where you want the number to be duplicated, insert a
cross reference to the text of the Order bookmark and add a line

ActiveDocument.Fields.Update

to the code so that it updates the cross reference field to show the value
that was entered into the bookmark

Signature

Hope this helps.
