Can I get the cursor to goto a bookmark on opening

[Marc R]

This should be simple. I would like the cursor to go to a pre-defined bookmark
when the document is opened....not to the upper left-hand corner.
As a work-around alternate solution, I would accept the cursor going to the
end-of document...I realize Ctrl+End accomplishes this, but our physicians
are using voice recognition software to populate specific fields.

Using an AutoOpen macro for when the document is opened or and AutoNew macro
for when the document is first created from the template that contains the
following code:

ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Bookmarkname").Range.Select

will do it. The macro should be in the template from which the document is
created.
