Hi Curtis,

Using Word 2007 maybe? See my other reply on how you could automate that
bookmark idea.

In older versions it should work, as long as you save in *.doc format.
Other formats like RTF and HTML likely (haven't tried) won't store the
information about the place you last edited.

Or you might use some add-in that removes such metadata to avoid privacy
issues (... it might be unintentionally revealing to know which part, say,
of a contract was last edited, which I guess may be the reason why Microsoft
did away with saving that info in Wd2007).
