I have a manual (188 pages) that is written in MS Word 97. I want to be able to link from a link on a HTML page to a named anchor/bookmark in the MS Word 97 manual. The reason the manual is in MS Word is that our users prefer MS Word.
P.S. We are using both IE5 and Netscape 4.5 as our browsers.

After constructing a link to the document, place the bookmark name (preceded by #) at the end of the reference:
Go to bookmark

I tried this but it always takes me to the top of the manual, not the place in the manual that I want to go.

I am wondering if maybe I have something in Microsoft Word set up wrong. I can't get your example to work either. The link still takes me to the top of your document.

Word 97 has HTML editing & saving capabilities... you could always start a new html doc and past the contents into it. Whether you do that or not, these are the tags you will need.

Creates a target location within a document

Links to that target location from elsewhere in the document
