Give MS Word files tabs, like Excel, 1 tab = 1 Chapter! overdue
I'm new to giving suggestions, so have no idea how often this has been
proposed before but didn't find it during the search. Tabs for Word It would make sorting (placing and finding again) of information much easier and neater if each 'chapter' of your Word file has a separate nameable tab as in Excel. At this point all information has to be on the one and only chapter, and can only be found by scrolling up and down. Example: If I have phone numbers in a word file, I may like to put friend's numbers in chapter one, those of service providers in chapter two, etc. Or if you keep diaries on different subjects, you can place each in a different chapter. I'm sure anyone writing a novel would also prefer a different tab for each chapter. Placing of curser Also, there has never been an easy way of placing the curser quickly at the very end of a word file so that you can continue where you ended. Clicking the down arrow, or an extra down arrow, on the scroll bar should take you right to the end of the text. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Look into the Document Map function, which shows the headings as you have
created them and allows for rapid navigation through the document. Ctrl+End takes you to the end of the document. Ctrl+Home to the start. Also, Shft+F5 takes you to the last point of edit, even after shutdown. Hope this helps you use Word a bit better until MS agree to your idea. I would not hold your breath though ;-) DeanH "JMK" wrote: I'm new to giving suggestions, so have no idea how often this has been proposed before but didn't find it during the search.
