Adding multiple flextables in Word at bookmarks - replacing eachother

[Irissie-2]

Hi,

I want to add two flextables at two bookmark locations in 1 Word document. However, when the second one gets added, it puts the second table at the bookmark of the first, and the first table is not in the Word document.

Has anybody else had this problem and knows how to fix it?

Example code:

variable_1 <- c("text1", "text2", "text3") 
variable_2 <- c(23,45,23) 
variable_3 <- c("column1", "column2", "column3")

df1 = data.frame(variable_1, variable_2) 
df2 = data.frame(variable_3, variable_2)

df1_flex <- flextable(df1) 
df2_flex <- flextable(df2)

doc <- read_docx("X:/My Desktop/test_document.docx") 
doc <- cursor_begin(doc) 
doc <- cursor_forward(doc) 
print(doc, target="X:/My Desktop/test_document_bm.docx")

doc <- read_docx("X:/My Desktop/test_document_bm.docx") 
doc <- body_bookmark(doc, "tabel1") 
doc <- body_replace_flextable_at_bkm(doc, "tabel1", df1_flex) 
doc <- body_bookmark(doc, "tabel2") 
doc <- body_replace_flextable_at_bkm(doc, "tabel2", df2_flex)

docx_bookmarks(doc)

print(doc, target="X:/My Desktop/test_document_result.docx")

Yes, I'm sorry! I didn't know where would be the best place to ask.
