In Word 2007, how can I link a heading from a list to the actual text found
later in the same documnt?

Well, you're in the Mac Word group, so you might want to post to one for PC
Word:

http://www.microsoft.com/office/community/en-us/FlyoutOverview.mspx

Even though the answer may be the same on the Mac you really don't provide
enough detail about what you are actually trying to accomplish - what you've
expressed can be achieved in several different ways & may not even be
necessary based on the availability of other features. Be as accurate &
specific as you can in describing your need when you post over there:)

interface, some better than others - so I don't see how you can say "the
interface is badly designed".

That's because you didn't follow the link Daiya left.
Microsoft's webby interface front ends these usenet lists with an
abominably designed page to "help" people select the appropriate NNTP
newsgroup. You would think that *nobody* could have done worse than
Google Groups, but Microsoft did so with ease.

Don't know that you can make that blanket statement - there may be other
portals that generate that - but the converse is true, that any post
from the Microsoft web interface will have the X-Newsreader: field set
to Microsoft CDO for Windows 2000.

MS has at least two web interfaces--I don't even check the headers, I
just assume that if they wound up in the wrong place, it's because they
started at the one where to pick a group, there's a drop-down menu with
about 800 choices--and if you hit W to navigate it, it sends you to a
group called "Word". Just Word. Which is this group.

Some lost soul was kind enough to tell us about it once, and once I
followed his link, it all became clear. My link actually sends them to
an easier interface to deal with.

By definition, though, any well-defined interface would send people to
the right place, no? :)

I'll tweak my boilerplate, though.

Because we know from his posting address which client he was using.

Please spend a little longer with us before you begin flaming :)

Not quite: Any post from Microsoft CDO will go to the Microsoft server farm
directly, from which it *might* be replicated to Usenet, depending on the
Usenet news server in question. It's a "pull" update: some take it, some
don't.

What we can say is that users reading on the Microsoft Communities are
looking at the output of an SQL Server that has no connection to UseNet.

That server requires an authenticated login to post, which tends to clean up
the content a bit, because posters have to stand by their output :)

Cheers

Oh, please. :) That was barely a spark, never mind a flame. :) And
since it was aimed at me, I claim authority to say so. :)

You're right - my reference wasn't to that post, but to several previous
ones.

And I shouldn't have written anything at all - my aplogies.
