I am collecting information in a single Word file. Some of the information
gets pasted to the bottom of the "top half" of the file and the other gets
pasted to the end of the file. I have "HERE" typed in at the location that I
want to keep returning to but I want a super quick way to jump back and forth
between "HERE" and the end of the file. Is there a way to do this with just
a short number of keystrokes?

I am an old fan of the Unix "vi" editor where I would just type "/here" to
go to the middle and ":end" (??? memory fails me) to get to the end of the
file.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

One way is to insert a bookmark at the location you want to jump to. For the
sake of consistency, you can name the bookmark "HERE".

When you want to go there, press Ctrl+G to open the GoTo dialog; click
Bookmark on the left, click the HERE bookmark's name in the list, and click
the Go To button.

With a little setup, you can have a one-step shortcut. Put this macro in
your Normal.dot template (see http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm if
needed):

Sub GoToHERE()
If ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Exists("HERE") Then
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("HERE").Select
End If
End Sub

Assign a keyboard shortcut to the macro (see
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Custom...oToHotkey.htm).
Pressing the shortcut will then take you directly to the bookmark.
