As you've found, hyperlinks in footers are not accessible unless the
header/footer pane is open. You could put a hyperlink on every page, but
that's rather a waste of time. Ctrl+Home will take you to the top of the
document, and most users probably know this, but if you want to emphasize
it, you could add a footer that says "Press Ctrl+Home to return to top."

I'm trying to make a help document, I have some various links to other
places
within the document, and at the bottom of every page, I want to put a link
back to the top of the document. I've placed the text in the footer, made
the
bookmark, and set the hyperlink. However it won't let me use the hyperlink
in
the footer without the 'Header and Footer Design' toolbox open.

Is there a way to fix this, or a good way to get around this problem? I'm
fairly new to Office 2007. Thank you for any help you can offer.
