Bookmarks

[roborat]

Hi, I am trying to use bookmarks to return to places in a document. I can go
from A to B and back to A. I can go from C to B, but then I end up back to A.
I have given the location B two bookmark names and Word seems to recognize
them as C will go to B and A will still go to B. BUT when C goes to B, B
retains the A link. When I try to switch it, the change overrides and then I
can go A to B to C or C to B to C. Why does it only recognize the second
bookmark one way? And can it ever see them both so the return will work for
both A and C? Thanks.

Wow - That's a mouthful. I'm not sure I completely understand your scenario,
but I think your problem comes from having more than one bookmark applied to
the same piece of text.

Can you think of a solution that only uses one bookmark per location? That
way the A bookmark always goes to A and the C bookmark always goes to C.

I think a diagram might have been more effective!

It is not my document, just one I am troubleshooting so I cannot really
alter it.

I do wonder why it recognizes the second bookmark for C (to B), because it
that instance it is no longer B, it is B2, but will not recognize the link
from B2 back to C.

Thanks for the feedback though... guess I just cannot outsmart it!
