bookmarking - why can't I give a name

[George de Nice]

I'm trying to use bookmarks in Word. If i give the new bookmark a name with
more than on letter the "add" button disappears. I can't even give it a
number. Is it not possible to give a bookmark a name which means something?

You can use up to 40 characters. All letters are allowed. You can also use
underscores inside the name. Numbers, spaces and other characters are not
allowed.

Actually, numbers are legal characters in a Bookmark name - the name just
can't start with a digit

You are right. My mistake...
