....and if you still want a macro:

The following macro will delete all bookmarks in the selection, incl. hidden
bookmarks (such as _Ref bookmarks).

Sub DeleteBookmarksInSelection()
Dim oBookmark As Bookmark
Dim bShowHidden As Boolean

'Save status of "Show Hidden" bookmarks
bShowHidden = ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.ShowHidden

'Make sure to also delete hidden bookmarks
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.ShowHidden = True

For Each oBookmark In Selection.Bookmarks
oBookmark.Delete
Next oBookmark

'Set "Show hidden" back to initial state
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.ShowHidden = bShowHidden

End Sub

If you need help on installing a macro, see:

If you want to keep hidden bookmarks, delete the line:

ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.ShowHidden = True

In that case, you can also delete all lines in which bShowHidden is found.
