Following and Returning to Cross-Reference

I frequently use cross-references to refer to numbered paragraphs in legal
documents, such as See Section 4.B. These references are links which will
take you directly to the paragraph when you CONTL+Click on the reference.
Does anyone know how I can easily go back to the paragraph with the reference
after following the link? In old versions of WORD you could hit CONTL+G (to
get Go To)and then ENTER to go to the page containing the reference. In the
old version, Go To would always have the last page you were on before
following the reference and so by hitting enter, you would return to the page
with the reference. This doesn't work in WORD XP. You have to manually type
the page (if you noticed it) or just navigate to it. Not very helpful.
 
Shift-F5 is GoBack, although it may not work if you didn't edit anything
where you were. Worth a try, though.
 
If you display the Web toolbar, does the Back button work?
