Where is it getting "False" from??

[slwolf8]

Here is the code I'm working with:

Dim strAmendType As String
strAmendType = cboAmendReply.Text

ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("bmkAmendType&quot.Select
Selection.TypeText Text = strAmendType
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("bmkAmendType2&quot.Select
Selection.TypeText Text = strAmendType

The cboAmendReply is initialized with two items, "An Amendment" and "A Reply". The style of the combo box does not allow additional items to be entered. When I tested this code out by choosing "An Amendment" from the combo box it put "False" in both of the bookmark spots. Why is it putting "false" instead of "An Amendment"? This is not within a conditional statement. This code executes from a button_click event.

i believe that for the
selectionltypetext text=strAmendType
that you have... you have to have it like this

selection.typetext (strAmendType)

not text=

Let me know if that worked

That did work thank you!! It's weird though because I use that other syntax all the time without a problem. Oh well I'm just happy it works now! Thanks again!!
