Default last place in document

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has it been replaced by something, or alternatively what command do I need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.
