How to Link to Heading in another Word document
I frequently need to create hyperlinks to sections in another document. I know I can create bookmarks in a document. That will allow me to hyperlink to those specific sections from another document. Is there a way to do this without creating bookmarks. Currently, you can hyperlink to headings within the same document. Why not headings in another document?
Is there a way to convert headings into bookmarks? |

How to Link to Heading in another Word document
All hyperlinks to a specific location make use of bookmarks, so you can't create
such hyperlinks without bookmarks, no. When you hyperlink a heading in the same document, Word "sees" the headings and generates a hidden bookmark automatically for you. After you have created a hyperlink to a heading, do the following to locate the hidden bookmark: Place the insertion point inside the hyperlinked heading. Click Insert | Bookmark. Select "Show hidden bookmarks." You may have to change the sort order from "Name" to "Location" (or vice versa), and then you'll see the name in the "Bookmark name" box. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "AnthonyJames" wrote in message ...
