From: Stefan Blom on 6 May 2010 11:25 To be more specific: I have noticed, at least once, that the Bookmark dialog box cannot be used to uniquely locate (the name of) the hidden bookmark at the insertion point. I haven't made any thorough tests after I updated Office to the most recent service pack, though. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Suzanne S.

From: Suzanne S. Barnhill on 6 May 2010 12:17 My experience with using the Bookmark dialog to find these bookmarks is that you have to not only check the box for "Hidden bookmarks" but also select the radio button for "Location" rather than "Name." -- Suzanne S.

From: Stefan Blom on 6 May 2010 14:07 Yes, those are the steps I'm using too. But, as I wrote, they didn't seem to work at one instance.
