In Visual Basic there is a very convient blue "flag" marker you can attach to
a line in your code. After the line is flagged you can cruise way off to
another part of the code to check something out and when you want to return,
you simply hit the "Return to my flag (or flags)" button and zap! you're back
to the flagged line. ....could be great for cruising large documents,
spreadsheets...whatever. If you like this idea please respond...as I
understand it MS bases the value of implementing a suggestion on the amount
of attention its gets....

You can pretty much substitute a bookmark for the flag and then use the GoTo
command to move to the bookmark.

F5 activates the full list of items you can go to: lines, sections,
bookmarks, etc...
 
Shift+F5 (GoBack) works this way already, up to a point. It would be handy,
though, if Word had a way of setting something like the QuickMark in
WordPerfect that is a single temporary bookmark.
