You are incorrect, sir.

You state, "no Word version has had such a feature. Maybe you were previously using a different word processor, or Word with a 3rd-party addin."

The version we had did have this feature. Maybe it did not come out of the box with this feature...but I assure you, it was a legitimate version of Microsoft Word.

It is possible that our organization engineered the software in some way and then provided it to us - we don't load it on ourselves, the IT staff does that.

In any case, we would use a bookmark pull-down menu and choose "create a bookmark"...a screen would appear. We would then name the bookmark and click OK. If unhidden, the bookmark would appear in green italics.

Providing code does not help me. We cannot monkey around with the code on our computers. This is the Federal Government and is now highly secured - so only certain qualified people can do anything like that on our computers.

I was hoping that someone could just tell me how to use the options that are provided and get that bookmark feature to work. I really need to see the unique identifier that I write for when I create a bookmark (not just the "I").
