Error!Bookmark not found Error but bookmark is there

onetomany · Nov 21, 2008

I am getting an error in a word document that says Error!BookMark Not Found. However the book mark has been found and the data from the book mark is displayed right in front of the error message.

For example I have a bookmark that pulls an address (i.e.1234 Main St)
This appears on the word document as:
1234 Main St ERROR!Bookmark Not Found

Does anyone have any experience with this?
We are using Windows XP and Word 2003.

Thanks

What does it show if you select it and press Alt+F9?

Enjoy,
Tony

Yes, we need to know the actual code of the field. Further, could you explain: " I have a bookmark that pulls an address "

Pulls how?

Hi onetomany,

You say:

For example I have a bookmark that pulls an address (i.e.1234 Main St)
This appears on the word document as:
1234 Main St ERROR!Bookmark Not Found

This suggests to me that the bookmark and cross-reference to it are working. It also suggets there's a second, invalid cross-reference exists AFTER the valid cross-reference. Try selecting the error message and deleting it.

Cheers
