Hi Eric, If your chapters are always level 1 headings you can do something like this: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (defun bh/jump-to-last-level-1-heading () (interactive) (goto-char (point-max)) (while (org-up-heading-safe))) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- HTH, -- Bernt
