That sounds like an awful lot of work for my use. I would have to do
that 50 times a day, and how do you get rid of the previous bookmark
when you set a new one?
I think I will just use my Portable copy of OOo 3.2.0, from Sun, which
does have the behavior I like.

In previous versions of OOo, when an existing document was opened in

been eliminated. Would it be possible to get it back?
This is not an answer to your question, but there are two facilities
useful as workarounds: reminders and bookmarks. Set reminders by
opening the Navigator and clicking the (paper clip) Set Reminder
icon. Set bookmarks at Insert | Bookmark... or again through the
Navigator. You can get back to bookmarks and reminders in various
ways, using the Navigator or the Navigation toolbar (which are
different things). It is a good idea to get used to exactly how to
use these, which is perhaps not well explained in the help text. Note
that - once you have configured it - you can use the effect of the
Navigation toolbar directly from the three buttons at the bottom of
the vertical scroll bar. Probably the simplest way to return to a
bookmark is to right-click in the Page Number field at the left of the
Status Bar (at the foot of the window) and select the appropriate
(named) bookmark from the context menu.
I trust this helps.
