WD98: Jumping to a Bookmark Located in a Header or Footer

• Microsoft Word 98 Macintosh Edition

SUMMARY

Microsoft Word 98 Macintosh Edition allows you to insert bookmarks into a document header or footer. Word 97 also allows this. However, in versions of Word prior to Word 97, you can only jump to a bookmark in a document header or footer when the header or footer pane is active.

This article contains a sample Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications macro (Sub procedure) that demonstrates how to jump to a bookmark in a header or footer.
