Default curser position at file opening

Is there a way to save the place you put your curser in word 2007?

Default curser position at file opening

I understand the function present in earlier versions to quickly go to the
last edit point is missing from Word 2007. You can work around it easily
enough with a couple of macros in the normal template e.g.

Sub OpenAt()
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="OpenAt"
End Sub

Added to a keyboard shortcut or to a button on the QAT, when run it will
insert a bookmark at the cursor position called OpenAt. Or you could
incorporate the command line in a macro to intercept the Save and Save as
functions to mark the last cursor position before saving the document.

The following macro will check for that bookmark and select it if present
when a document is opened.

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