Default How to 'return' from following hyperlink?

I am preparing a document with Word XP and using hyperlinks from one part to
another. Clicking on any hyperlink (with CNTRL pressed) works fine but then
there seems to be no easy way to get back to where the hyperlink was
clicked.

Can anyone tell me how to do that?

With thanks,

Gerry

Alt + Left Arrow should do it.

Thanks for the suggestion but on my computer Alt + Left Arrow just takes you
back to the start of the article.

Shift+F5 sometimes works. If not, display the Web toolbar and use the Back
button.

Many thanks for the suggestions but they don't work on my system: Shift + F5
goes to some arbitrary place in the document and the web back button goes to
the start of the document.

Thanks again anyway.
