Hi,

I am adding a bookmark dynamically in word document using vb.net. All i
want is i want to set my cursor position(mouse pointer) at the end of the
bookmark text.

Here is the code i am using to create bookmark.

Dim rng As Object

rng.Text = "bookmark1 text"

Connect.applicationObject.activedocument.Bookmarks.Add("bookmark1", rng)

Any help would be appreciated

cheers

Praveen

Hi Dave,

Thanks for your reply and it did work fine. Is there any way to add extra
space at the end of the bookmark text and set the cursor over there.

for exmaple [bookmarktext] I

where I is the cursor point or mouse pointer.

Cheers
