Hello all- I'm stumped! I created a word document with a number of hyperlinks within the document and saved it as a web page. When I send it via email, all of the hyperlinks display blue, but cannot be clicked to access the web page. (unless it's a link that displays a specific web address? Any clues why that's the case? Thanks-Gerry

In the html the portion of text (or other source) that you have bookmarked will look similar to this: <a name"NameYouDesire">NameYourLinkingTo</a> Later when linking to that bookmark, your link will look similar to: <a href="#NameYouDesire">NameYourLinkingFROM</a> Please note; in the above example both the bookmark and the link to the bookmark are required on the same page. if your linking from a different page it may be similar to: http://www.mywebpage.com/myDirectory/mypage.html#NameYouDesire or you may use realative links and these cannot be speculated on without knowing your directory structure. >and saved it as a web page.

All this is so much easier if a URL is provided! However, If you have not removed ALL the bloated Word HTML providing a URL is useless because nobody is willing to sort through the mess. BTW, Word was never intended to be used for creating web pages, rather a transport tool to return Word documents FROM html pages and back into their origianl Word Document format.
