Default Hyperlinks to TOC at bottom of every page

In addition, Word 2003 (maybe 2002) and above have a GoToTOC button you can
add to a toolbar or the QAT.

If you activate the Web toolbar, which you can place at the bottom of the
screen, then using the TOC to hyperlink to an entry in the document will
activate the back arrow. That may be all you need.

Otherwise, you'd need to create a textbox whose layout is formatted as
anything other than 'in-line' or 'behind' the text and laid out so that
its position remains fixed on the page (ie not 'move with text') and do
this for each page.

The advantage of the first approach is that the link button is always
visible, regardless of where you are on the page and the page zoom factor.

How can I add a hyperlink to the TOC at the bottom of every page of a
document? Placing the hyperlink manually in the main part of the page
works,
sort of, but it gets jostled around when I make changes to the content on
the
page, and I have to then manually re-locate the hyperlink. I also tried
placing it in the footer, which keeps the hyperlink from wandering around
on
the page, but it requires mulltiple clicks (to open the footer, then to
activate the hyperlink) which is inconvenient. Any suggestions?
