Does anybody know why the following Statement causes an error

var
  OApp : Variant;
begin
  OApp := GetActiveOleObject('Word.Application.8');
  ShowMessage(OApp.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Count);
// Returns correct "15"
  ShowMessage(OApp.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks[1].Name);
// causes Error "Item is no property"
in VB I tested
  MsgBox ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Item(1).Name
and this returns the first Bookmark-Name

I tried also
  ShowMessage(OApp.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks(1).Name);
It causes Error "Bookmarks is no method" - that seems me to be ok.

thanks for any help

Try the following :

 ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Item(1).Name
(just like you did in VB)

This works fine in my code.
