MS Office Forum / Word / Tables / May 2006How can I anchor text in word 2000?
I want to anchor bookmark and linked to and from text at the top of Word pages. I have a table that overflows and I would like to include bookmark and links at the start of each page where the table overflows. When the table overflows it pushes the text “page 2” bookmark down to a third page the same thing happens with regular text that overflows. In both cases I would like the text “Page 2” to remain anchored at the top of page 2. In both cases Page 2 will have a bookmark and is linked to from Page 1. Is there any way I can anchor this bookmark/link text? I have tried everything textboxes etc. I hope this makes sense. Example 1: (desired results) l Example 2: (what’s happening) l Page1Page 2 [linked to] l Page 1 Page 2 [linked to] l Table l Table l Page 2 [bookmarked] l Table [overflow] l Table [overflow] l Page 2 [bookmarked] Might be better if you explained the problem you are trying to solve, rather than your current attempt at a solution. On the face of it, what you are trying to do can't be done. But that doesn't mean the problem can't be solved. >I want to anchor bookmark and linked to and from text at the top of Word > pages.

[quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > l >Table [overflow] l Page 2 [bookmarked] The bottom line is I would like to anchor text to the top of a page. If the previous page table overflows I want the over flow to start after the text at the top and not push it down. By the way the "|" bars will not stay in place they justify left. >I want to anchor bookmark and linked to and from text at the top of Word >pages. [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > l >Table [overflow] l Page 2 [bookmarked] The information that you want at the top of the page will have to be in the header of the section. This may mean that you will need to insert section breaks before and after the table. SignatureHope this helps.

Doug Robbins - Word MVP > The bottom line is I would like to anchor text to the top of a page. If > the [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] >> l >>Table [overflow] l Page 2 [bookmarked] I can not put the text in any header because they are "bookmarked" and "linked to" for example "Page1" [has a bookmark and is linked to from page2, 3 and 4] also pages 2, 3 and 4 are the same both bookmarked and kinked to. If I add text to the end of page 1 and it overflows it pushes the text "Page2" down. I want to anchor the text "Page2" to it's given page. >The information that you want at the top of the page will have to be in the >header of the section.

If you can explain it more clearly without making use of personal pronouns someone maybe able to help you. Please also advise exactly what you mean by "bookmarked" and "linked to". Does the former mean that you and selected some text and inserted a bookmark and does the latter mean that you have inserted a cross reference to the text of that bookmark? It will certainly help if you can provide an example in your post of what it is that you have on Page 1 and what it is that you want to appear at the top of Page 2. One final comment is that the only way to stop something at the top of Page 2 from being pushed down by text overflowing from Page 1 is going to be to have it in the Header. You may be able to control whether or not it displays by using and If...then...Else... field construction that only displays it if the page number is greater than 1. SignatureHope this helps.

Pages 2,3 and 4 have the same applied. If I add additional table data the text PAGE2 is pushed down. I want to anchor the text PAGE2 to the top of the page. I hope this explains it better. Sorry what do you mean by "without making use of personal pronouns"? example PAGE1[bookmarked] Page2 Page 3 Page4 [is linked to the text on Page2,3 &4] table data table data table data end of page PAGE2 [bookmarked] Page2 [has a link to the text on Page2] table data table data table data end of page >In that case, I do not understand what it is that you want to do.

I have described in plain English what I want to do in the first posting. I have also provided multiple examples. I am exceptionally knowledge in Office products and have been using them from since they were developed. I also teach MS Office. However I ran into this one exceptional problem that I could not figure out no matter what I did. I would like to take this opportunity to thank both you and Doug for your time. >Perhaps if you tried putting aside for the moment the methods you are using >(ie forget about the links and the bookmarks); simply describe, in plain [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] >>>>>>> l >>>>>>>Table [overflow] l Page 2 [bookmarked] Sorry, but your post did NOT explain what you are trying to achieve; only how you are trying to achieve it. Given that your method doesn't work, you should try something else. But if you can't bring yourself to explain the objective, there's no way to suggest what the 'something else' might be. Lord have mercy on your students. > The methods I am using are the primary point. I have described in plain > English what I want to do in the first posting.

I also teach MS Office." and yet is unable to clearly describe what he's intending to do or accept that there might be a better way to do it? I think in this case one of the following is applicable: "As long as you always do what you do, you'll always get what you get."

The very first posting said, “I WANT TO ANCHOR BOOKMARK AND LINKED TO AND FROM TEXT AT THE TOP OF WORD PAGES.” If you don’t know the answer, do not reply to the question. All of my peers and colleagues had no difficulties understand the question; they just did not know the answer. This is my last response to you so please do not REPLY. >Sorry, but your post did NOT explain what you are trying to achieve; only >how you are trying to achieve it.
