Would anyone tell me how to get image from bookmark1 in document1 and paste this image to bookmark2 in Document2 ?

You can do it using the formattedtext method:

Code:

Sub ScratchMacro()
'A basic Word macro coded by Greg Maxey
Dim oDoc1 As Document, oDoc2 As Document
  Set oDoc1 = Documents(1)
  Set oDoc2 = Documents(2)
  oDoc1.Bookmarks("TargetBMName").Range.FormattedText = oDoc2.Bookmarks("SouceBMName").Range.FormattedText
lbl_Exit:
  Exit Sub
End Sub

Dear Grey Maxey

Thanks for your kind help. But how to remain bookmark "TargetBMName" after execute your marco?

What do you mean, "How to remain bookmark ....?

I don't what your bookmarks are actually named and the code was just an example. The idea is that you have two documents e.g., Doc A and Doc B and each has a named bookmark. The code sets the formatted text content of one as the formatted text content of the other.

Dear Grey Maxey

I am sorry to have confused you. I make some wrong steps in my macro led to overwrite the target bookmark in Doc2.

In document 2, go to Insert|Object>Text from File, select the file, then insert the bookmark name in the 'Range' box. With this approach, any changes to the bookmarked image in document 1 will be reflected in document 2.
