Ah, okay, thanks for the clarification. But won't that mean that 2007 and
2010 will have different (and slightly incompatible) file formats?

If I recall correctly, what we were told was not that it was
incompatible but that there was no place in the 2007 file format for
it (as defined by the XML schema for that version), probably owing to
an oversight. Fixing the problem would have required changing the
schema, which in turn would have led to two different "versions" of
2007 document files because of a minor feature. That would not be a
good situation from Microsoft's point of view.

The 2010 file format has that place, and code to store the value
during a save, so it works. The schema is different from the 2007
schema to accommodate lots of feature changes, so the change is
acceptable to MS.

Fortunately, GoBack works fine when you open a Word 2010-created .docx
file in the upcoming Word 2010.

It is no longer available - however it can be worked around.

With a handful of macros stored in the normal template, documents will
always open with the cursor at the place it occupied when the document
was
last saved.. These intercept the save and saveas routines to insert a
bookmark at the cursor position and locate the cursor at that bookmark
(if
present) when the document is next opened. If you already have macros
with
these names, incorporate the code in those macros.

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

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

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

I am using the new Word 2007 and in other versions I could open a
document I had been working on and press Shift F5 and it would take me
to
the last position I was working on in the document. That command no
longer works, has it been replaced by something, or alternatively what
command do I need to assign to a key to get it to do that. It was
something I used a lot, can anyone help please.
