Tag in Microsoft Word

[Jeno]

Dear All,

I was wondering how can i make "Tag" in a .doc / .docx or .xls document?
The tag i am referring to is like a bookmark or a keyword that i can search
and referring to at any time instead of going through the whole document
again to find it.

Thanks & Regards,
Jeno

Thank you very much Jay Freedman.
Now that I've bookmarked my document. Can I export them as a new document?

Thanks & Regards,

How about you tell us exactly what you want to do, rather than one step at a
time. That way you will be more likely to get the most appropriate advice.

Exactly what do you mean by the word "them" in "export them as a new
document".

Sorry Doug. Here is what I wanted to do:

Let say I have a very long document (either .doc or .xls). I wanted the
ability to make "Tag" to some certain part of my document for easy searching
or editing. At the same time, I am also looking for a way to export those
tagged area as a new document.

For example: I have a long document and I bookmarked Item 561 and its
content. I make alteration to it as requested by customer. Now that I've done
the changes, I want to export the whole tagged Item 561 along with its
content as a new document.

Sounds simple but can it be done?

Thanks & Regards,
Jeno

You'll use an IncludeText field (including the bookmark) in your new
document. In Word 2003 and earlier, use Insert | File, click the Range...
button and type the bookmark as the "range." For more, see

Thank you very much. This is what I am trying to do.
