Good evening
I would ***LOVE*** to have a CONVENIENT function for jumping to the last
edit position.

I believe this and/or similar questions have been asked before:
http://ask.libreoffice.org/question/1144/cursor-position-not-saved-in-writer#1147

But this does not work.
I do have my personal data entered under Tools and yet the software
ALWAYS opens the document at the top.

I use that feature daily and I can assure you it DOES work with ANY
LibreOffice (or OpenOffice) version under Windows XP x86.

In fact you can test this easily: go to the User Data and just fill the
First and Last names (make sure all other fields are blank) with First and
Last, then open this document
https://www.dropbox.com/s/jr74qmarxmktx5y/cursor_position.odt
It should open in page 8, line 115

Yes, I am aware that this "SHOULD" work ... but it doesn't.
For reasons I do not understand.
That is why I am asking.

Your document too opens on page 1, line 1.

"Sometimes" if I create a new document and LibreOffice "feels like working today", this function actually DOES work,
but .. as I said, not consistently.
And that is to my taste very annoying.

Is there anything else I could try?

Line 1 page1 for me too.

I opened the file using LO 3.4.6 and 3.5.4. Both of them opened your file Line 1 page 1. I have Ubuntu 11.10 64 bit using the DEB's from the LO website. As a test, I opened a document that I had worked on yesterday. The cursor was blinking at the very point that I finished editing the document. Why it would open a document to the place where work ended before but not do this for another document is the real question.
