It's always a good idea to provide information about your environment, software
versions, etc. For instance, it would be helpful to know what kind of help
output you're creating -- WebWorks Help, HTMLHelp (.chm), simple HTML, DHTML --
and whether it's being deployed on a server or installed locally.
If the help system consists of HTML files, you can use hypertext commands of
type "Go to URL" in the FM source and point them to the _output_ file (not the
Word source), perhaps to an anchor within the output file, e.g.:
Message URL SomeHTMLPage.html#12345
I'm not sure how you create anchors in Word. In FM, you could use TopicAlias
markers. With a little more information about your project, maybe someone who's
done something similar can provide a more specific response.
