how can I jump to the last place edited in a word 2007 document?

In versions prior to Word 2007 it was possible to jump to the last place
edited (shift F5 I believe). Is it really true that this facility is no
longer available in the 2007 version?

Yes, once the document is closed, but it is easy enough to work around with
a couple of macros in the normal template

Sub FileSaveAs()
On Error Resume Next
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, name:="OpenAt"
Dialogs(wdDialogFileSaveAs).Show
ActiveWindow.Caption = ActiveDocument.FullName
End Sub

Sub FileSave()
On Error Resume Next
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, name:="OpenAt"
ActiveDocument.Save
ActiveWindow.Caption = ActiveDocument.FullName
End Sub

Sub AutoOpen()
If ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Exists("OpenAt") = True Then
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("OpenAt").Select
End If
ActiveWindow.Caption = ActiveDocument.FullName
End Sub

The lines - ActiveWindow.Caption = ActiveDocument.FullName
are optional and put the document name in the Word title bar.
