hyperlink from picture in word to header in same word document

[Brent]

Hi,
I want to insert in a word document a picture that contains links. The picture will function as a graphical table of contents. I would like these links to enable me to jump to the appropriate section (header) in the word document. How do I do that? I don't know what the syntax of the hyperlink would be?
Thank you,
Brent

Insert | Hyperlink to Place in This Document: Headings, then select the
appropriate heading. If you have not used Word's built-in heading styles,
you'll have to bookmark the headings (just one of many reasons why it's best
to use the built-in heading styles).

Hi Suzanne,
Thank you for the reply but it doesn't answer my question. For whatever reason when I try to edit the links within the web image while in Word the changes are ignored. I am able to select the heading and it acts like it changed the hyperlink but it hasn't. I can easily edit the links for the html file in Notepad (before I copy it into the Word doc) but I don't know what to put as the link to point to a header. For example if the header is named "Apple" I suspect that there is something I could type in Notepad that would make it jump to the Apple header. All help is appreciated!!
Thank you, Brent

Are you trying to link the picture to more than one heading ("hot spots")?
This might be difficult; I think you can have only one hyperlink per
graphic. Are you selecting the graphic before inserting the hyperlink?

Hi Suzanne,

I can easily edit the links for the html file in Notepad (before I copy it into the Word doc) but I don't know what to put as the link to point to a header once it is in the Word document. For example if the header is named "Apple" I suspect that there is something I could type in Notepad that would make it jump to the Apple header.

I could send you a sample .doc file if that would help.

Thank you, Brent

The hyperlink that Word constructs will be { HYPERLINK \l "Apple" }, where
"Apple" is the name of the bookmark you've assigned to the heading. In HTML,
this would translate into something like <a href="#Apple"></a> But it would
be much easier to use Insert | Hyperlink and let Word format the field
properly.
