The third tab in the Find And Replace dialog box is the Go To tab, shown in Figure 12-16, which enables you to move quickly through a document, and go just about anywhere you'd like. For example, you can go directly to a page, section, line, bookmark, comment, footnote, endnote, field, table, graphic, equation, object, or heading.

To access the Go To tab in the Find And Replace dialog box, perform any of the following actions:

Choose Edit, Go To.
Press F5 or Ctrl+G.
Click the Go To button in the Select Browse Object menu. (To open the Select Browse Object menu, click the Select Browse Object button toward the bottom of the vertical scroll bar.)

Creating Bookmarks for Document Navigation

In addition to using the Go To tab in the Find And Replace dialog box and the Select Browse Object menu, you can navigate documents by creating bookmarks. If you frequently need to access a particular area within a document, you can insert a bookmark to make returning to the area a snap. To insert and name a bookmark, follow these steps:

Position the insertion point where you want to insert a bookmark, and choose Insert, Bookmark.
In the Bookmark dialog box, type a name for the bookmark, click Add, and click OK.

After you insert a bookmark, you can use the Go To tab to find the bookmarked area, or you can choose Insert, Bookmark to open the Bookmark dialog box, select the bookmark's name, and click Go To.
