How to hyperlink to a portion of a page?

Hello

Have you seen the sites where you click on a hyperlink and it directs you to
a portion of the htm page. I beleive it has something to do with defining
coordinates.

Any help Please!!!!

No coordinates, just add a bookmark.

- Highlight the text that you want to jump to (the destination)
- Click "Insert | Bookmark" (or Ctrl+G if you're a keyboard type of person)
- The bookmark name will default to the same as the selected text. If you
highlighted more than one word, there will be spaces which are a bad thing.
I usually change the name value to something that is one meaningful word and
all lower case.
- Click "OK". The bookmark is now available to link to.

In "Normal" mode you'll see a black, dashed underline that indicates the
text is a bookmark. To create a link to the bookmark, highlight your link
text and create a hyperlink (this assumes you are using FP2002, I think
FP2000 was a little different in the interface, but you should get the
idea):
- Click "Insert | Hyperlink" (or Ctrl+K)

- - -If the link and the bookmark are on the same page
- Click the "Bookmark..." button
- Select the name of the bookmark
- Click OK

- - -If the link and the bookmark are on different pages
- Find the page the bookmark is on and select it in the file list. Note
that you _do_not_ have to actually open the file.
- Once the file is selected, click the "Bookmark..." button
- Select the name of the bookmark
- Click OK

Hope that helps!
