Question Add hyperlinks to same texts in different sequence

Hi community,

I would like to ask if it is possible to use word macros to add hyperlinks to same texts in different sequence. For example, I have a conversation content in a word document:

Speaker 1: Hello I am ABC

Speaker 2: Please sit down.

Speaker 1: OK



Speaker 2: Please introduce yourself in 1 minute.

Speaker 1: I am XXX, I graduated from XXX......

Different hyperlinks need to be added to "speaker 1" and "speaker 2". However, "speaker 1" and "speaker 2" happened multiple times in a word document. General mailmerge hyperlink word macro or addins cannot identify the sequence of them.

Is there any method to automatically add different hyperlinks to the same texts but in different sequence according to the excel file?

I tried to draft the code as follows:

Code:
Sub AddHyperlinks()

    ' Open the Excel file containing the hyperlinks
    Dim xlApp As Excel.Application
    Dim xlWB As Excel.Workbook
    Set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
    Set xlWB = xlApp.Workbooks.Open("C:\Path\To\Hyperlinks.xlsx")
    
    ' Loop through each occurrence of "Secretary" in the document
    Dim doc As Document
    Set doc = ActiveDocument
    Dim rng As Range
    Set rng = doc.Content
    Dim counter As Integer
    counter = 1
    Do While rng.Find.Execute("Secretary", MatchWholeWord:=True)
        ' Add the hyperlink to this occurrence of "Secretary"
        Dim hyperlink As String
        hyperlink = xlWB.Sheets(1).Cells(counter, 1).Value
        Dim linkRange As Range
        Set linkRange = rng.Duplicate
        linkRange.Collapse Direction:=wdCollapseStart
        linkRange.MoveEndUntil Cset:=" "
        rng.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=linkRange, Address:=hyperlink
        counter = counter + 1
    Loop
    
    ' Close the Excel file
    xlWB.Close
    xlApp.Quit
End Sub
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
