    VBA Script to Find and Replace in Word Template replaces with blank values

    Hi, I have looked around and tried a range of things with this code. On a button click I am looking to open a Word Template, Find and Replace, Export as PDF, and then Email the PDF. This is all working apart from the find and replace function which opens the Template looks at the 2nd row of DeliveryDetails to get the tag names i.e. !!Customer!! finds that tag in the Template and replaces it with nothing. I want it to replace each tag with the value in Row 3, and repeat this for as many rows as are present.

    I think you are trying to reinvent Mail Merge, a built-in feature of Word where document fields can be replaced by values in an Excel file. The typical use is to generate form letters, which is what it looks like you are doing. I would suggest looking up documentation for that first before you spend more effort on a custom solution. You could still have a macro to email the file.
