Is there a book mark concept in WORD 2007?

I often find myself in a certain section of a WORD document that may be, lets
say, 10 pages long, and I want to go to a certain other section, but finding
my way back to where I was prior to moving to the new section is not as easy
as I would like.

I'm just wondering, what, if any, tools WORD 2007 has for quickly returning
to a certain place in a document. In MS Access, if you are on a procedure,
you can move to another procedure easily, but then, move back to your
starting place by selecting "Last Definition". Or, you can simply place
markers in your code and move from marker to marker. I suppose since they
are different animals, that WORD won't act exactly the same but just
wondering what options there may be.

Pressing Shift+F5 cycles among the current cursor location and the previous
three places where editing occurred. So, often you can get back to where you
were by pressing Shift+F5.

If that's too hit-and-miss for you, Word does have a bookmark feature. In
the ribbon, you'll find it in the Insert tab, under Bookmark (in the Links
chunk). There's also a keyboard shortcut: to insert a bookmark, press
Ctrl+Shift+F5, type the name you want to use, and press Enter. To return to
that bookmark, press Ctrl+Shift+F5, and double-click the bookmark to which
you want to return.
