"#" sign not recognized in urls within Word and PDF

[njagga]

Within a Word document and a PDF file I am trying to post a url that
finds a specific location in a pdf. The link I have works within an
Internet Browser but not within a Word document or PDF file. The
problem is surrounding the "#" sign in the url. Word and Adobe are not
able to recognize the "#". Word ignores the "#" and even cuts off the
myfile.pdf when it opens a browser. What should I do so that both Word
and Adobe are able to recognize my full url??

Here's an example, the zoom picks the location rather than a user
having to manually create bookmarks:

http://www.mysite.com/myfile.pdf#page=12&zoom=100,0,400

Thanks!
