Word returns you to your last position in the file if you hit Shift-F5 when you reopen the file. I imagine it only works with DOC files, though.

The only program I know of that will keep your place for you is Kurzweil, but you have to be editing in the .kes format for it to do that, so the best thing you can do is to maybe insert some string of characters you can remember as a bookmark, then delete those characters when you return to that spot in the book to continue editing. You can choose any string of characters that will be unlikely to appear in the actual text of the book. You can use Kurzweil as your editor, even with other formats besides .kes, but I use Word, so I'll let others talk about that or other options. Take care.

I have ms word but it's an old version. The home version of xp did not come with word. I would also like to find a program that you can edit with and if I stop at a certain point and save the file it will bookmark the place for me so that I won't have to go to the place where I left off the next time I open the file.
