In editing, I need to go back and forth between pages, can I click something
to quickly do this???
 
I don't think so. I've always thought Word needed something like that.

But you can remember the page number and then drag the scroll bar and it
will show the page number you are going to next to the mouse icon.
 
Shift+F5 will return you to the last edit point.

Scrolling doesn't really help when the file has a lot of jpgs. Each has to
be loaded and it takes forever. Last edit point or bookmarks don't help
either. Any other solutions? Is it impossible?
 
I'm not sure when the original post was submitted - can't find it anywhere -
but...

If you just want to browse from one page to the next use
Control+PageUp/PageDown or - depending on version [which isn't mentioned
*anywhere* in the thread] - you can use the Browse Objects buttons at the
bottom of the Vertical Scroll Bar.

Word will also "remember" the last 4 edit locations and Control+F5 will
return you to the previous one in the sequence, cycling through those edit
points with each use of the keystroke. If this is what you mean by "don't
help" I'm at a total loss as to what you would like to have happen.

You can also use the Go To feature (Control+G) to specify a page
number/bookmark - or whatever - or drag the main Scroll Bar button (*not*
the arrows at either end) & release it when the desired page is indicated in
the yellowish tip box.
