macro to copy from excel range to word doc

G

Guest

Thanks to macropod and others, i cobbled together the following code to copy
a specific range from a set of excel files to a specific word document. The
problem i have, is how to insert a paragraph break in word in between each of
the excel ranges after they are pasted into word, otherwise it defeats the
purpose since i would have to cut and paste again to create the necessary
room to add comments in the word doc.

tia for any help.
regards.

does exist, and when i debug, the name is showing up as passing through to
WdDoc correctly...
