Default Bookmark applied to drop-down list doesn't do the job

Thanks macropod

I have tried removing the bookmark attached to the drop-down list and then referring to the drop-down list title or tag but it doesn't seem to work, I might not be referring to it correctly in the macro- how should I do this correctly?

How would I refer to table cells row/column address in a macro?

The excel macro is currently trying to paste a value in the word table cell that contains the drop down list. In reality, we're trying to pick a value from the list (the excel file has identical values to the word list).
Thanks again,
Simon
