Phil: Do you use the Remember Place in Files option? This may not be exactly what you want, but it will get the job done. Its on the General page of the Settings dialog. >>> phil@xxxxxxxxxxxx 05/03/06 11:47AM >>> Hi Rob, In the first question I am suggesting a hot key that would remember your place in the file, then reload the file and move to that place. In the second I am only suggesting background loading as an option not as the default setting.
