Thanks

"The solutions and answers provided on Experts Exchange have been extremely helpful to me over the last few years. I wear a lot of hats - Developer, Database Administrator, Help Desk, etc., so I know a lot of things but not a lot about one thing. Experts Exchange gives me answers from people who do know a lot about one thing, in a easy to use platform." -Todd S.

Try this:
Sub WhichBM()
    Dim bmk As Bookmark
    If Selection.Range.Bookmarks.Count > 0 Then
        MsgBox "Bookmark '" & Selection.Range.Bookmarks(1).Name & "' is the first one in the Selection"
    Else
        MsgBox "No bookmarks in Selection"
