I am writing a page with a callendar on and want to link ( using a hotspot ) to an article on another one o
my pages. There are several articles on the second web page and I want to go directly to the specific article

I can create hyperlinks within the same web page without any problem i.e. <a href="#article1"> The link</a

But I can't find a way to link from a hotspot on the calendar page to a named anchor on another page using the UI

I know the code should end up like <a href="page123.htm#article1"> The link </a

I don't know what page number publisher will use until it generates the pages, it seems to use pseudo-random numbers for the html pages ( i.e. Page1353

Any help would be greatly appreciated

You'll want to name the page files to accomplish your linking. 2003 supports
page file naming IF you use the support folder option. The support folder is
under the options in tools. To name files go to the web options under tools
when you are on each page. You can still name them to a degree with the sub
folder off, it just prefixes the file name with the home page name like the
sub-folder.
