I have a large manual with several sections. Sections might contain
information about a subject, or directions (map) to a location, etc.
I would like to use the table of contents as a home base for a reader
to click to a page and then somehow go back to the table of contents
much as the <Back> button would on a web browser.

This is probably a simple question, but how can this be implemented?

I have selected Tools | Options | Edit and unchecked the Cntrl-Click
feature to enable a one click on an item in the TOC to go to the page.

How can it be enabled to go BACK to the TOC easily?

It's a simple question, but that doesn't mean there's a simple answer. Word
is not well suited for onscreen delivery. It's intended for *writing* the
document, not reading it. PDF (amongst other options) is a better choice,
both because it provides this sort of navigation automatically, and because
it produces a higher-quality rendering of your text and graphics.

That said, what you're after is certainly doable: record a macro and assign
it to a toolbar button.
