MS Office Forum / Word / Document Management / March 2008When ever I open a saved document it opens at the top of the docu.
If I am working on a long document and I open it back up Word Defaults to the top of the document. Is it possible to bookmark the document to open up to where I left off? After you've opened the document, you can use Shift+F5 to move the insertion point to the last edit point.

Two additional points: - If it doesn't work properly in Word 2000 through 2003, you need a macro to fix it: http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/GoBackFix.htm - It doesn't work at all in Word 2007, which doesn't save the built-in \PrevSel1 bookmark when the file is closed. It would be possible to write AutoClose and AutoOpen macros to save a (not built-in) bookmark and return to it. Someone has probably done this already, but I don't have a citation to give you.

I'm currently editing a 165- page article, and when I reopen it, sometimes Shift-F5 works and sometimes it doesn't. More reliable is clicking the back-arrow on the Reviewing toolbar and it asks whether it should start searching from the end. It then takes you to the endmost (though not necessarily the most recent) tracked change or Comment in the file. > After you've opened the document, you can use Shift+F5 to move the insertion > point to the last edit point.
