set curser position

[cindy]

Hi-
I'm wondering if I can set the curser position on a word
document when it opens?

I'm thinking a macro might do it - but can not get it to
work. I want the page to open with the curser set on
line 13 col1.

Any ideas? thanks for your help!!!!

Hi, Cindy!

Can you insert a bookmark at that location?
If so, then record a macro that uses Edit-Go to-Bookmark and choose that
bookmark.
Then, hit Alt+F11. Double-click NewMacros and copy the code only (not the
Sub and end sub lines), double-click ThisDocument and in the code window at
right, type Sub Document_Open(), hit enter, paste the code.
Right-click NewMacros and hit REMOVE and do not export.
Hit the diskette to save the code. Close the file and reopen to test.

thanks for the reply...
that kind of worked - but not for what I need.
This is for a tracked document - and using the GO TO
bookmark - it starts the tracking ID at the bookmark - so
it always stays the same - it doesn't seem to release
that ID..??
any other ideas? Any VB code to "Set curser"????

thanks - Cindy
