Bookmark 'part' of content control text? How could that work? The whole point of content controls is that they include variable texts. How does a bookmark sit with that? If you are inserting texts using VBA and you want to bookmark part of that inserted text, you would be better setting a range to the location and inserting the text and the bookmark there, rather than use content controls as location markers.

I agree. Trying to bookmark part of a variable range is fraught with difficulties.
