Hyperlinking Between Frame and MS Word Source

[de Rouck, Tom (Gent)]

Hello Angela, 

I don't know which 'entry points' Word generates when creating (html) output from it for a heading 1 for example, but that can easily be found out by generating a Word doc. As an emergency solution you can then use the "pass through" option in Frame/Webworks to type a working link in Framemaker. You then have to leave the idea of perfect single-sourcing behind however...

Regards,
Tom

Angela already asked this question on the WebWorks forum, but I suggested that she ask the question here, too, since it's not strictly an ePublisher question.

Forget the ePublisher side of things for now. I'd like to know if you can link/xref/whatever from a point INSIDE an FM file to a point INSIDE a Word file, and vice versa.
