I still say just typing the range in the name box is the fastest way :-)

First, stop thinking Word.<g> It's not really a range based application
despite what our Word folks would like us to believe. The Word programmers
really did do a bang up job making it adhere to the range model as well as
they did but it just ain't the same because it's still based, at its core,
on the old Bookmark("BookmarkID") Start:=x, End:=x model from Word 2.0.

Second, if you've already selected the first cell you want before going to
the Edit->GoTo dialog, the cell reference is already there. If you select
A1, all you have to add is :x28 and the range will be selected when you
press Okay.
