Hi all - being a newbie I'll try and be quick. I'm having trouble debuging VBA in Word (2002 SP2).

In a nutshell I'm trying to delete a bookmark - the bookmark is not being deleted and yet even in debug mode and stepping a line at a time I can see no error or issue.

I'd really appreciate any suggestions as it is doing my head in - I've surfed the net and can't find any suggestions as well as reading the help, and two books. How can something so simple be so sdifficult to resolve?

In debug mode all lines are peformed, but the bookmark remains!
Cheers
Colin.

Sub checktest()
On Error Resume Next
If ThisDocument.Bookmarks.Exists("text") Then
MsgBox "found test1 bookmark"
ActiveDocument.Bookmark("text").Range.Delete
MsgBox "after delete"
End If
End Sub
