I'm filling in a winword document with a table via automation (VBA, access database). &nbsp;The automation code moves to a bookmark and inserts text at that point. &nbsp;Everything works perfectly.<br />
Now there is a requirement to change the border of a cell that has a specific bookmark in the cell in a word table. &nbsp;Two parts to the problem.<br />

<li>How do I identify and select the table cell based on it containing a bookmark?</li>

<li>Once I have the cell selected how would I modify one of the cell borders (change the line style)?</li>

Modify table cell in winword via automation

Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) enables building user-defined functions (UDFs), automating processes and accessing Windows API and other low-level functionality through dynamic-link libraries (DLLs). VBA is closely related to Visual Basic and uses the Visual Basic Runtime Library, but it can normally only run code within a host application rather than as a standalone program. It can, however, be used to control one application from another via OLE Automation. VBA is built into most Microsoft Office applications.

Microsoft Word is a commercial document editing program that is part of the Microsoft Office suite. It features numerous text-editing tools for creating richly formatted documents, along with tools for the use of macros in Word documents. Word's native file formats are denoted either by a .doc or .docx file extension. Plugins permitting the Windows versions of Word to read and write formats it does not natively support, such as the OpenDocument format (ODF) are available. Word can import and display images in common bitmap formats such as JPG and GIF. It can also be used to create and display simple line-art.
