Hi Paul,
I have never placed any kind of markers before in word so bear with me!
Now I went in to the iAudio manual as it happened and found a blank line a 
paragraph in, and typed *.* as directed then closed the document, opened it 
again but it did not bring me to where I left off previously but took me to the 
top of the manual!
I did save the marker change in the document!
Could you please explain further?
Should I be doing some sort of a search or find? 

It would be a big help for me and I'm sure others to get it sorted!
All the best,
Tony Sweeney.

  Hi Tony,

   

  Personally I read a lot of material out of word documents and what I use is 
not rocket science. I just place the following mark at the point where I wish 
to continue the next time I go back into that document. It is simply;

   

  *.*

  I use the above sequence because it is rare to find it in any normal document 
and I place it usually on a blank line just preceeding the line of text I wish 
to  begin next time. Each time I start the new text I always delete the marker 
so that my book isn't over filled with such markers.

   

  Hope this is of some help.

   

  Regards,

   

  Paul.

  Hi All,

  I had a query on this list recently about markers in a document.

  Just to give an example of what I'm about!

  Through the good offices of Paul we were sent the iAudio manual.

  Now I have been just looking at same which is quite easy to read, I am 
pleased to report as it is in word.

  Now I can't read all of it in one go so would love to know is there a way to 
mark the place where I left off, or even say stop reading when I would get to 
the end of a page and place a marker for the next page where I can resume my 
reading/studying again without having to go through the previous part of the 
tutorial which I would have obviously read!

  I would be pleased to receive any reply even if it is only to say "no can do"!

  All the best,

  Tony Sweeney.
