Hi Gareth, Frank,

The solution above is fine if you don't have to hop between windows too often.  
There's a
feature in MS Word and in most spreadsheets (inc. Calc) that lets you have two 
parts of one
document inside a split-window.  Hence you can have your column headings / lead
paragraph / whatever at the top, see a big bar across the screen, and see Row 
25,000 or
page 23 or whatever.

IMHO it's a good idea for anyone editing long documents.  I *rarely* use it, 
but I do go loking
for it often enough to wonder why Writer doesn't do it yet.
