Multiple bookmarks to hold the same value

[mr_ocp]

Hi
I have to automate a fairly large report in MS Word to be created from
MS Access using VBA, I will be using a template for that, to start
with, the each page of report has a header containing month, year for
the reporting month which is always the last month ended for example
April, 2004.

What would be the best approach to place this value on each header,
how can I create an array of bookmarks in the template and insert the
month into them all with minimum amount of code, or is there a way to
automae it within the template to fill these bookmarks/spots
automatically when the template is invoked from access but the values
should remain static once the template is saved as the month's report
document.

Thanks a bunch

I'm not quite sure that I have understood your question correctly, but if
what you are after is a way to have the Month in which the report is created
appear in the header, this can be done simply by inserting a

{ CREATEDATE \@ "MMMM, yyyy" }

field in the template from which the report is prepared.

That assumes that the report is prepared by using

Documents.Add "templatename"
