Endnotes disappear in Word 2007

I am working on a 474-page document with about 150 pages of Endnotes. When I
am working in those notes in Word 2007, they will often disappear. The only
way to get back to where I was working is to hit ctrl-end, which takes me not
to the end of the document but to the end of the text right before the notes
start. Then I have to page down until I get back to where I was working (the
go-to-page feature doesn't work in the endnotes, it just takes me to the
start of the notes). Eventually, the page will disappear again and I will
have to repeat this very frustrating and time-consuming step. I can't seem to
determine when and/or why the disappearing is happening. Sometimes it happens
during an auto-save or hard save, but other times will happen for no apparent
reason. Has anyone else had this problem? Any thoughts as to why it might be
happening? Thanks.

You might find it easier to work in the Endnotes pane, accessible from Draft
view.

I tried that but it resets the Endnotes pane as soon as I save, so if I have
it resized, it resets to the default, which is just nearly as problematic.
