I am using Writer 2.0.3. I can make a hyperlink appear and I can get it to jump to the appropriate place in the document using a bookmark, but can anyone explain to me how I can get the Hyperlink to read something like "see Section XYZ on page 123" please?
Please note, I want the "on page 123" part to be in black, not blue.

There may be a more streamlined way of doing this, but here goes!

Firstly, when you say you want "on page 123" to be black, I assume you want "see Section XYZ" to be blue.

Step 1 - Create the section and a bookmark

If you haven't already done so, create a new section in the part of the document you want to hyperlink to. To do this, move to that part of the document and select Insert / Section from the menu. Call the new section "Section XYZ".

To help with the page number part of the hyperlink, create a bookmark there too (a reference also works). Select Insert / Bookmark from the menu, and call the bookmark "Section XYZ" (for consistency).

Step 2 - Create the hyperlink.

We do this by creating a hyperlink and a cross-reference.

Go to the part of the document where you want the hyperlink to be, and select Insert / Hyperlink from the menu. Select Document from the left hand panel. Click on the "Target in document" bullseye icon, and choose Section XYZ from Section. Click Apply then Close. Under the Text section, type "see Section XYZ". Click Apply then Close.

Now move the cursor after the hyperlink and type " on page ". Select Insert / Cross-reference from the menu, select Bookmark, Section XYZ, Page. Click Apply then Close.

Done!

I hope that is what you are looking for. There is plenty of room to move in this guideline if you are after something a little bit different, and I'm sure others may come up with a more streamlined method.

Hope it helps.

Adrian
