I'm writing a paper using Microsoft Word that must have all figures in Appendices. I have found myself in this situation: I use one figure to define multiple concepts, I have created multiples hyperlinks to the figure, and a hyperlink to each of the part of the text beside the title of the figure:
..., See Figure 1.01 A...
..., See Figure 1.01 B...
..., See Figure 1.01 C...
.
.
.
Figure 1.01 A B C
I have done this hoping to improve the reading experience, but I want to know if it is possible to do this the other way: creating multiple hyperlinks to one so that when I click this hyperlink, it takes me back to the last place I called it.

You can accomplish your goal this way:


Create a macro. I named mine "AltLeft".
Open the macro editor and add the SendKeys command, like this:


Sub AltLeft()
' AltLeft Macro
SendKeys ("%{LEFT}")
End Sub


The string "%{LEFT}" tells Word to send the Alt-LeftArrow key sequence. This key sequence will take the user back to the last hyperlink clicked.
Assign the AltLeft macro to a button and save it to your document. (Note: you will have to save the document in Word's macro-enabled format (.docm) so that the macro will work.)
