How do I bookmark text on another page of website in publisher?

I found instructions for placing an anchor and link using HMTL Code Fragment,
but it did not give instructions for when the anchor is on another page of
the site. I am using Publisher 2003 and want to direct customers to a certain
part of the next page.

thepurplelady1,

You can use the code fragment technique or as I have found, you can also
just insert a hyperlink to the anchor on the next page.

First insert your anchor using the insert html code fragment, on the page
where you want to go.For this example use "READHERE", "READHERE1", etc for
your anchors. Avoid spaces and remember to be case sensitive. Publisher will
choose a page number when you Publish to the Web, so do a web page preview
and note the "Page###.htm" in the address field. (You also have the option
of naming the page, and thus the file.)

Then go to the previous page and insert a hyperlink to the anchor using the
following format:

http://yourdomain.com/index_files/Page352.htm#READHERE

This assumes that you are using the subfolder option, index_files, and that
your page is "Page352.htm".

You will have to upload the pages to your host to test as you are using
absolute links.

And by the way, linking to an anchor on another page is a built-in function
in Pub 2007.
