Jumping to a Specific Page

Summary: The Go To dialog box allows you to quickly and easily jump from place to place in your document. This tip explains how you can go from one page number to another. (This tip works with Microsoft Word 97, Word 2000, Word 2002, and Word 2003.)

Word allows you to move the insertion point to any page in your document by using the Go To command. To take advantage of this feature, follow these steps:

Choose the Go To option from the Edit menu, or simply press F5. You will see the Go To dialog box. (Click here to see a related figure.)
On the left side of the Go To dialog box, make sure that you indicate you want to go to a page (this should be the default choice).
Enter the page number to which you want to move.
Click on Go To, or press Enter.

If, instead of entering a page number (step 3), you simply click on the Next button, Word moves to the next page in the document.

Tip #27 applies to Microsoft Word versions: 97 | 2000 | 2002 | 2003
