In today’s article, we would like to share with you the steps to batch extract all bookmarks from your Word document as to view them at once.
In Word, you can generate a table of contents or a table of figures with the built-in function. But, you will ultimately find there is no usual way to extract all bookmarks of a document and arrange them on a new document.
Like always, our mission is to lead you through the myth and provide you with the macro way to export all bookmarks as well as their texts to a new blank document.
Batch Extract All Bookmarks from a Single Document
- To start off, open the target document and press “Alt+ F11” to invoke the VBA editor.
- Next click “Normal” and then “Insert”.
- And choose “Module” to create a new one under “Normal” project.
- Then double click on it to bring out the editing space.
- Paste the following macro there:
Sub ExtractBookmarksInADoc() Dim objBookmark As Bookmark Dim objTable As Table Dim nRow As Integer Dim objDoc As Document, objNewDoc As Document Dim objParagraph As Paragraph Set objDoc = ActiveDocument If objDoc.Bookmarks.Count = 0 Then MsgBox ("There is no bookmark in this document.") Else Set objNewDoc = Documents.Add Selection.TypeText Text:="Bookmarks in " & "'" & objDoc.Name & "'" Set objTable = Selection.Tables.Add(Range:=Selection.Range, numrows:=1, numcolumns:=3) objTable.Borders.Enable = True nRow = 1 For Each objParagraph In objNewDoc.Paragraphs If objParagraph.Range.Style = "Caption" Then objParagraph.Range.Delete End If Next objParagraph With objTable .Cell(1, 1).Range.Text = "Name" .Cell(1, 2).Range.Text = "Texts" .Cell(1, 3).Range.Text = "Page Number" For Each objBookmark In objDoc.Bookmarks objTable.Rows.Add nRow = nRow + 1 .Cell(nRow, 1).Range.Text = objBookmark.Name .Cell(nRow, 2).Range.Text = objBookmark.Range.Text .Cell(nRow, 3).Range.Text = objBookmark.Range.Information(wdActiveEndAdjustedPageNumber) objDoc.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=.Cell(nRow, 3).Range, Address:=objDoc.Name, _ SubAddress:=objBookmark.Name, TextToDisplay:=.Cell(nRow, 3).Range.Text Next objBookmark End With End If objNewDoc.SaveAs2 FileName:=objDoc.Path & "\" & "Bookmarks in " & objDoc.Name End Sub
- Last but not the least, click “Run”.
All bookmarks of the current document will be put in a table on a new document saved at under the same directory as the original file.
You can see table of 3 columns in the new document. And if you follow the “Ctrl+ Click”, it will bring you to the bookmark in the original document.
Batch Extract Bookmarks from Multiple Documents
Follow the same steps above to install and run a macro. Only this time, you replace the codes with the bellowing ones:
Sub ExtractBookmarksInMultiDoc() Dim objBookmark As Bookmark Dim objTable As Table Dim nRow As Integer Dim objDoc As Document, objNewDoc As Document Dim objParagraph As Paragraph Dim strFolder As String, strFile As String strFolder = InputBox("Enter folder path here: ") strFile = Dir(strFolder & "*.docx", vbNormal) While strFile <> "" Set objDoc = Documents.Open(FileName:=strFolder & strFile) Set objDoc = ActiveDocument Set objNewDoc = Documents.Add Selection.TypeText Text:="Bookmarks in " & "'" & objDoc.Name & "'" Set objTable = Selection.Tables.Add(Range:=Selection.Range, numrows:=1, numcolumns:=3) objTable.Borders.Enable = True nRow = 1 For Each objParagraph In objNewDoc.Paragraphs If objParagraph.Range.Style = "Caption" Then objParagraph.Range.Delete End If Next objParagraph With objTable .Cell(1, 1).Range.Text = "Name" .Cell(1, 2).Range.Text = "Texts" .Cell(1, 3).Range.Text = "Page Number" For Each objBookmark In objDoc.Bookmarks objTable.Rows.Add nRow = nRow + 1 .Cell(nRow, 1).Range.Text = objBookmark.Name .Cell(nRow, 2).Range.Text = objBookmark.Range.Text .Cell(nRow, 3).Range.Text = objBookmark.Range.Information(wdActiveEndAdjustedPageNumber) objDoc.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=.Cell(nRow, 3).Range, Address:=objDoc.Name, _ SubAddress:=objBookmark.Name, TextToDisplay:=.Cell(nRow, 3).Range.Text Next objBookmark End With objNewDoc.SaveAs2 FileName:=objDoc.Path & "\" & "Bookmarks in " & objDoc.Name objDoc.Close strFile = Dir() Wend End Sub
Once you run the macro, there is an input box. Enter the folder path where you store all the documents. And remember to add “\” at the end of the path if you just copy it from the folder text box. Then click “OK”.
