excel word paste command fail - vba

I am running an excel programme that generates graphs based on data. I then want to export it to word and save it as a pdf.
I am having issues with pasting the diagrams into word as I often get the error 'Run time error '4198' Command Failed' on the Word Paste Special line. I have included by code for the word export below.
Option Explicit
Sub word_export(numscans As Integer, rootpath As String, poleid As String)
Dim n As Integer
Dim i As Integer
Dim WDApp As Word.Application
Dim WDDoc As Word.Document
Set WDApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
Set WDDoc = WDApp.Documents.Add
Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:01"))
WDApp.DisplayAlerts = wdAlertsNone
For n = 1 To numscans
For i = 1 To Sheets("Scan" & n).ChartObjects.Count
Sheets("Scan" & n).ChartObjects(i).Chart.CopyPicture _
Appearance:=xlScreen, Size:=xlScreen, Format:=xlPicture
WDApp.Selection.Range.PasteSpecial Link:=False, DataType:=wdPasteMetafilePicture, _
Placement:=wdInLine, DisplayAsIcon:=False
WDApp.Selection.MoveEnd wdStory
WDApp.Selection.Move
Next
Next
WDDoc.SaveAs rootpath & "\" & poleid & " Summary.pdf", wdFormatPDF
WDApp.Quit wdDoNotSaveChanges
Set WDDoc = Nothing
Set WDApp = Nothing
End Sub
Any help would be appreciated.

Not entirely sure about this one, but give it a go:
WDApp.Selection.Range.Select
WDApp.Selection.PasteSpecial Link:=False, DataType:=wdPasteMetafilePicture, _
Placement:=wdInLine, DisplayAsIcon:=False

VBA Loop not sending data to word in a consistent way

I have the below code that goes through a simple spreadsheet for now and paste the organisation,
one table a single cell value and a chart into a word template. The code runs and produces both a word and pdf version correctly. But what I see is that the table is on occasion ended up where the organisation should be and the chart is being repeated in the document. Each output of the loop seems to vary and I can't work out if the information is not being cleared from the clipboard before it gets pasted. Do I need to run the sections into sub sections or something?
Appreciate the help.

You may or may not want to take this as an answer to your question, but here are some ways you can improve your code so as to gain better control over how it operates. It is not a "solution" in the sense of a completed, correctly working code module, but if you adopt this advice it should enable you to solve the issue yourself (along with many other issues you might otherwise encounter in the future).
(1) Avoid using Copy and Paste. As you correctly note, those put you at the mercy of the Windows clipboard. Instead, assign the source object or value to a variable, then insert the contents of the variable at the destination. For instance:
Organisation = WS.Range("D2").Value
wdDoc.Bookmarks("Organisation").Range.Text = Organisation
Now you are able to control what is inserted at the destination point. Among other things, you can reset the variable at the end of each loop, so that there is no risk of repeatedly inserting an object or value that may be carried over from one loop cycle to the next.
(2) Use With ... End With to explicitly specify the parents of your objects. That way you don't risk accidentally referencing a different object than you expected. For instance, in this excerpt from your code ...
With WdApp
Set wdDoc = .Documents.Add("C:\Users\david\Documents\Custom Office Templates\Template2.dotx")
End With
Range("A1", Range("A1").End(xlDown).End(xlToRight)).Copy
... the range copied in the last line may not be what you expect. If the active object at the moment is your newly minted Word doc, the Range object may be interpreted as some range in the document, rather than the spreadsheet range you wanted to copy.
To stay in control, use With consistently:
With WdApp
Set wdDoc = .Documents.Add("C:\Users\david\Documents\Custom Office Templates\Template2.dotx")
End With
With MyWorkbook.Sheets("MySheet")
Set MyTableRange = .Range("A1", .Range("A1").End(xlDown).End(xlToRight))
End With
That's just a couple of pointers, but these are basic good coding practices that you should adopt. I think they will help you resolve the issues with your code.
The issues you are seeing are likely being caused by using the clipboard. There can be a delay when copying and pasting larger items, e.g. tables of data, charts.
When you use the clipboard you are passing some control over to the OS. VBA includes a function, DoEvents that passes control to the operating system. Control is then returned after the operating system has finished processing the events in its queue. By adding this after each copy/paste it should allow things to catch up.
You can also slightly reduce your use of the clipboard by setting the values for 'Organisation' and 'Male Patients' directly.

Export several word documents appended in a single pdf file

I have an embedded MS-Word document in an Excel Worksheet which name is SalaryPaycheck.
The MS-word document contains several linked fields to Worksheet cells.
I have update the linked cells, several times and perform updating above fields.
Then I need perform exporting the embedded MS-Word document each time the fields have updated, as PDF.
So I need all exported files are appending in a single pdf file.
I using below code:
Sub PrintIt()
Dim objWord As Word.Application
Dim objDoc As Word.Document
Dim i as Integer
ActiveSheet.OLEObjects("SalaryPaycheck").Activate
Set objWord = GetObject(, "Word.Application")
objWord.Visible = False
Set objDoc = objWord.ActiveDocument
objWord.Application.DisplayAlerts = wdAlertsNone
objWord.Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For i = 1 to 10
Range("Key").value = i
objDoc.Fields.Update
objDoc.ExportAsFixedFormat _
outputfileName:=ThisWorkbook.path & "\Results\" & "rep" & i & ".pdf" _
, exportformat:=wdExportFormatPDF _
, openafterexport:=False _
, optimizefor:=wdExportOptimizeForPrint _

, docstructuretags:=True _
, bitmapmissingfonts:=True _
, useiso19005_1:=False
Next i
objWord.Quit
Set objDoc = Nothing
Set objWord = Nothing
End Sub 'Print it
How can using objDoc.SaveAs2 or objDoc.ExportAsFixedFormat (shown above) same as objDoc.PrintOut' whith 'Append:=True argument?
Or How can using .PrintOut with 'Append:=True' argument in this case (PDF) which working quietly (using OutputFileName:=path & filename and PrintToFile:=True)
As said in the other question, just append the documents in word
Sub PrintIt()
Dim objWord As Word.Application
Dim objDocTotal As Word.Document
Dim objDoc As Word.Document
Dim i As Integer
Dim strOutfile As String
Dim rg As Word.Range

End With
Set rg = objDocTotal.Content

Error 287 on Send command after upgrade to Windows 10

I have Excel VBA code that generates an Outlook e-mail with an attachment.
This worked in Windows 8.1 but does not work in Windows 10. I have stepped through the macro, and it gets all the way to the end, generates the e-mail, then fails on the OutMail.Send command. The error is

sorry about this, i think I have fixed it. I posted this earlier after looking through for hours last night but I seem to have got it. Instead of .Send i used Application.SendKeys "%s" which is a shortcut. This seems to send the e-mail properly.

This line is incorrect:
Set wdDoc = wdApp.Documents.Open(wbBook.Path & "D:\Surveys" & stSurveyTemplate)
Maybe you meant for it to be like this:
Set wdDoc = wdApp.Documents.Open("D:\Surveys" & stSurveyTemplate)
or this:
Set wdDoc = wdApp.Documents.Open(wbBook.Path & "\Surveys" & stSurveyTemplate)
What I noticed is that with the original code, it didn't throw an error and wdDoc was just set to Nothing. I removed the "sbBook.Path" and by mistake had an incorrect file name, and that did throw an error.

vba code copy multiple excel charts to word

I'm using the VBA code here to copy all the charts and tables from an excel workbook into a new word document from a template which is pre-formatted with bookmarks (labeled Book1, Book2 etc). Unfortunately i only have a few tables but around 20 charts and if i leave a blank in the summary table for the ranges i get
Run-time error '5101':
Application-defined or object defined error
and it only copies and pastes over the charts and table before the gap.
This is my excel summary table:
Any idea how i can modify the code to prevent this?
Sorry - i'm a complete VBA noob

There are multiple problems with this code, including the fact that if you had more ranges than charts it would only copy as many ranges as there was charts.
But to quickly fix your problem, replace
'Tell Word to goto the bookmark assigned to the variable BookMarkRange

'Copy the data from Thisworkbook
ThisWorkbook.Sheets(SheetRange).UsedRange.Copy
'Paste into Word

'Copy the data from Thisworkbook
ThisWorkbook.Sheets(SheetChart).ChartObjects(1).Copy
'Paste into Word
appWrd.Selection.Paste
with

'Tell Word to goto the bookmark assigned to the variable BookMarkRange
appWrd.Selection.Goto What:=wdGoToBookmark, Name:=BookMarkRange
'Copy the data from Thisworkbook

end if
if len(BookMarkChart) > 0 then
