Description:

On open of your document, you're automatically taken to the last location at which you worked.

On document close, this procedure creates a new bookmark at last location of the insertion point (cursor). On document open, it returns to that bookmark. It then deletes the bookmark, so when it closes again, the new last location is marked. This is handy if you are working on large documents and just want to come back to where you left off.
