I have a long word document, and I have to scroll all the way to the bottom to check footnotes. Is there anyway for me to easily put a bookmark on say a line of text so I can easily switch back and forth from footnotes to wherever I'm reading? This would save me soooooo much time.

I know there are simple work arounds to this like copying a line of text of where I am in my reading, doing what I need to do in the footnotes and control-Fing to find my place again...but sometimes I need to edit footnotes at the end of my document, and I lose my copied text.

Any thoughts!? I'm on Windows 8 Microsoft Word 2013

Here is a quick link that should help you:

There is no need to use bookmarks for this. All you need do to navigate to a footnote or endnote is to double-click on the footnote/endnote reference in the document. To return to where you were, simply double-click on the footnote/endnote reference at the start of the click on the footnote/endnote itself.

Alternatively, with endnotes, you can split the document pane so the endnote range is always at the bottom of the screen and the body of the document at the top.
