Hyperlinks from footnotes to "Headings" do not work in Word 2003 .

I cannot hyperlink to "Headings" from footnotes, endnotes, text boxes, ect.
(I can hyperlink only to Bookmarks). I've called Microsoft Support with no
help as to when Word will incorporate this back into Word (it works in Word
2000 & Word 2002). They told me to use Cross References which will not allow
you to change the tile of the hyperlink or style of the hyperlink (go
figure?). I guess I could go through all 1500 Headings and Bookmark them all
so I can hyperlink to them (ya right!) I can't understand how something so
crucial was overlooked in Word 2003? Especially when everthing is developed
around hyperlinks no-a-days! If anyone has a way around this problem besides
going back to Word 2002 let me know...

There's nothing to stop you inserting, into a textbox or footnote, a
hyperlink to a heading. The Insert Hyperliunk dialog doesn't support it, but
you can insert the field manually. Presumably you don't really want to
hyperlink to all 1500 headings from footnotes.

Don't understand your problem with changing the tile? or style of a
cross-reference.
