MS Office Word 2007; Re: Bookmarks

Please clarify: I get the feeling that you can only create a bookmark for:
Headings, Figures, and Tables. I've tried to make a bookmark for a specific
location in a document that doesn't have any Headings. But setting a
bookmark in this situation doesn't seem to work properly.

It seems the correct way to do this is to use a cross reference.

I just want some confirmation about the limitations of bookmarks. Or I want
to learn what to do when I'm not using headings to create a bookmark.

Happy holidays everybody.

There are two types of bookmarks. You can insert a bookmark at a specific
point (when displayed, it looks like the letter I with serifs), or you can
select text and apply a bookmark to it (in which case the bookmark is
represented by gray brackets surrounding the bookmarked selection). In
either case, you can then insert a cross-reference or hyperlink to that
bookmark.
