Can I also add that this all seems to work fine as a web document
(when I preview as a web page) I am at a loss to why it won't do the
same for an email message.

***I am creating an email newsletter for our company, doing the design
was simple but I am totally stuck on the hyperlinking. We have two
stages of hyperlink in our newsletter 1. hyperlinking back to the top
of the page. 2. Hyperlinking from the top of the page subjects
(headlines to articles further down) to their respective articles.

I have read of up on the complexity of hyperlinking on publisher
(using version 2003). The IT person at our company has tried to help
me write the codes but they are not working. The code is not broken
but when I put an anchor code and the link that points back to the
anchor code and then preview or send as an email both are visible and
don't work. Even when I right click and hyperlink to the page 1 (which
I assume would go to the the top of the page) the hyperlinks (although
underlining) don't work? So it seems whatever we do the hyperlinks
when the web page is sent as an email message do not work? Any help
you could offer in laments terms (I am in marketing, not technical)
would be fantastic - thanks!

Are you using the "insert html code fragment" feature to insert your
anchor/bookmark code? I have generally found that code inserted this way
will not survive the conversion to an email. If not the insert code fragment
method, then how are you doing it? Be specific please.

Its also possible that your links are being killed because of formatting.

Also, check Tools > Options > Web tab and make sure that the "Send entire
publication page as a single JPEG..." is not checked.

And I also assume that you are using either Outlook 2003 or OE5 or higher to
send your message?
