Inserting input into Word doc bookmark - shappaeye - Apr-18-2020
Hey all,
I have a python script which asks for values from the user in a GUI in Windows, when the values are input, I want them to be placed in a bookmark in a pre formatted MS Word doc.
I have looked around for this before and found a number of options but found it can insert after the bookmark or before but not into it.
Any ideas?

I should have said the GUI is a Python/Tkinter GUI and the bookmark is an enclosed bookmark.

OK, got a little further, realised it wasn't a bookmark but a FormField with a Bookmark reference! Doh!
So now I can get the data into the FormField but having problems with the Unprotect/Protect command.
I can Unprotect the Doc fine but when I go to Protect() it, it disables inputting in the FormFields so now need help finding the correct syntax for Protect.
