Default Excel to open word document -basics


I am trying to insert some excel data into a word doc & have never done
this before (and still a newbie at VBA). In order to get started I
have been playing at getting the basics right.

Have set up bookmarks in the Word doc ("test") called "customer" and
"solution". I have set up a commandbutton on the worksheet to open the
word document. When the commandbutton is activated, apart from opening
the word document, I want the document to automatically insert text
into the word doc.

Have used the following code:

Sub Commandbutton6_Click()

Dim wdApp As Word.Application
Dim wdDoc As Document
Dim wdRng As Word.Range

Set wdApp = New Word.Application
Set wdDoc = wdApp.Documents.Open("C:\test")
wdApp.Visible = True

Dim myArray()
Dim wdBkmk As String

myArray = Array("customer", "solution")

SetwdRng = wdApp.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks(myArray(0)).Range
wdRng.InsertBefore ("test")

SetwdRng = wdApp.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks(myArray(1)).Range
wdRng.InsertBefore ("test again")


SetwdApp = Nothing
SetwdRng = Nothing

End Sub

The document opens ok, but keep getting an error:

"Runtime 91 error - Object variable or With block variable no set"

Tried many things without success -any help on this to get me started
with the basics would be most appreciated.




Cheers

Peter
