VBA Code apply draft

It certainly does, because it appears to be calling a procedure WriteToBookmarkRange that doesn't exist, and the macro as written also has no idea what cboYourName.Value is.

If you want to write text to a bookmark, you could call the FillBM sub from my web site:

Code:

Public Sub FillBM(strBMName As String, strValue As String)
'Graham Mayor - http://www.gmayor.com
Dim oRng As Range
    With ActiveDocument
        On Error GoTo lbl_Exit
        Set oRng = .Bookmarks(strBMName).Range
        oRng.Text = strValue
        oRng.Bookmarks.Add strBMName
    End With
lbl_Exit:
    Set oRng = Nothing
    Exit Sub
End Sub

This will write the value to the named bookmark (here "Draft"), assuming that bookmark exists also. If not it does nothing. e.g.

Code:

If .Bookmarks.Exists("Status") Then FillBM "Draft", Environ("USERNAME")

This inserts the user's name at the bookmark, which I guessed may be what the missing value was all about.
