Jim, This checkpoint is designed to help keep users oriented so that as they move between documents and return to previously viewed dcouments that the users previous position in the document (i.e. the link or control within the document that has the programatic focus) and view (what part of the document they see, hear, etc..) is the same as when they were last in the document. So as the user navigates through documents and are using the BACK command to return to previously viewed documents, the user is NOT forced to the beginning of each previously viewed document.
