Where are the Office Scripts Examples for MS Word

Question

Excel examples abound, but the samples for MS Word seem to be few and far between. For example I want to know how to update a bookmark in a document, is there a sample that describes how to do that? The samples all go to 'first' or 'last' paragraph of the document, or, I assume, a paragraph number. Informative as they are, I don't know how often these samples are useful in reality, whereas finding some text or a bookmark and then inserting something is a fairly common task we do in VBA.

The API reference info is all about Excel, even the tag here for Office Scripts only references Excel. Where is the comprehensive MS Word reference material for Office Scripts.

Answer 1

Yes, there is much more available for Excel vba than Word vba.

Answer 2

Hi @Linda Krausz

Welcome to Q&A forum ~

Please check whther the following link is helpful.
Word VBA reference

Such as for bookmark, please refer to "Bookmarks object (Word)", there are some simple samples.

Here is another link for Word development, maybe you can have a look.
Word add-ins documentation
If you have any issues on Word development, you can post thread on following forums.
Word add-ins developer community

Besides, to better help you, I would add the tag "office-vba-dev", as the tag "office-word-itpro" focuses more on general issue of Word desktop client.

Thanks for your understanding.
