Cannot Link to Word Bookmarks from SharePoint Online
I'm looking to create a help page that links to various sections of a document using Word bookmarks, but every attempt I've made doesn't seem to work properly. When creating a link to my document...
It could be a problem caused by Word 2010. I would recommend updating to Word 2016 which is fully supported for use with Office 365.
Dean_Gross that's out of my control at the time being. Do you think Word Online would cooperate better thatn 2010 if I could get the links to open there by default?
- Bookmark and cross-reference links work, and you can edit their display text, but not their destination, in Word Online, see https://support.office.com/en-US/article/Differences-between-using-a-document-in-the-browser-and-in-Word-3E863CE3-E82C-4211-8F97-5B33C36C55F8 for some more details.
You need to talk to whoever provides you Office and get upgraded, there are going to be many annoying issues when you are using 2010 with O365.Hi All,
I wanted to follow-up on this post as I have been upgraded to Office 2016, but am still experiencing the same issue.
Has anyone been able to find a way to link to different sections of a word document saved on SharePoint 2016? It's not feasible for me to continue breaking up a document into multiple sections everytime an update comes through.
