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

    Bookmark1.Text = "Heading of Document"
    Bookmark1.Style = "Heading 1"
    Bookmark1.Delete()

End Sub
private void BookmarkStyle()
{
    this.Paragraphs[1].Range.InsertParagraphBefore();

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