    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Bookmark bookmark1 =
        this.Controls.AddBookmark(this.Paragraphs[1].Range,
        "bookmark1");
    bookmark1.Text = "First Bookmark";

    bookmark1.SetRange(Start, End);
}

Private Sub BookmarkSetRange()

    Me.Paragraphs(1).Range.InsertParagraphBefore()
    Dim Bookmark1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Bookmark = _
        Me.Controls.AddBookmark(Me.Paragraphs(1).Range, "Bookmark1")

    Bookmark1.Text = "First Bookmark"
    Bookmark1.SetRange(1, 1)

End Sub

Remarks

Character position values start at the beginning of the story, with the first value being 0 (zero). All characters are counted, including nonprinting characters. Hidden characters are counted even if they are not displayed.

The SetRange method redefines the starting and ending positions of an existing Bookmark control.
