Default Clicking on a bookmark in Go To should take me to it.

I shouldnt have to click Go as well. (And I shouldnt have to click €śClose€ť
once I get there. The panel is rarely needed any longer.)

The panel is needed by those who execute a GoTo and perform an edit
(with the Dialog still open), then GoTo again ... and again ....
Like you asked for in an earlier Post.
Do you really think??????????????????

Default Clicking on a bookmark in Go To should take me to it.

I made two suggestions. The first was not to make me click Go after I'd
selected a target, but to let the target selection do both functions. That's
the most important of the two items, and not addressed by your comment below.

As for automatic closure of the box upon reaching the target, I realize that
there are persons who would prefer the box to stay open, but my would think
that they are vastly outnumbered by persons who do not want to box to do so.
In any event, clicking an extra Ctrl-G is a minor imposition on them.

Regarding your final comment, it is uninformed. In my other suggestion, I
proposed that the Insert Bookmark box stay open after adding a bookmark, not
the Go To box.

Why should the box go away? I'd argue the contrary, namely that people
want the box to be open. It's great for finding stuff and moving around
fast in a document.

If you're correct, and if most people do want the box to be open after
arrival at the target, then so be it. Presumably MS has focus groups and
survey groups and an intuitive awareness of majority usage patterns, and they
can make the call on which would provide the greatest good to the greatest
number. I'm just giving them a nudge in these suggestions to "check it out,"
in case they've overlooked something.

(Because I'd originally written these items up weeks ago for submission to
MS in case they ever opened their suggestion box again, that sort of
qualifier above was implicit in the very manner of submitting an idea to
them. I submitted them here only because one of Microsoft's screen's had a
"submit comments" (or something like that) link that I clicked on, which took
me to a form of theirs that dumped these suggestions of mine into this forum.)

Both our preferences could be accommodated if GoTo contained a check box
labeled €śRetain/Erase this box after execution€ť€”or words to that effect. Ive
encountered a dialog box containing such a check box somewhere in Windows.
(Come to think of it, there are probably other dialog boxes that could be
enhanced with such a check box, to allow users to tailor
box-retention/erasure to their preferences.)
