Re Melanie's comments about hidden bookmarks.
One of the more interesting jobs I had in converting my big document from W=
ord to HTML was purging all of the automatically generated hidden bookmarks=
that had no relevance to anything I did to the document (most related to p=
resent or past headings - presumably put there for generating tables of con=
tents). There were probably five to ten times as many of these as ones I ha=
d created myself. These seemed to proliferate every time I moved my files f=
rom one computer to another.
By the way, if you keep close to vanilla HTML, FrontPage is actually quite =
a well behaved editing environment. I miss some of Word's high end utilitie=
s (e.g., sorting tables and some of the things you can do with graphics), b=
ut if you are delivering documentation to the Web you should probably be wo=
rking in HTML anyway.

Hi Janet
If you must work with the hidden cross reference bookmarks, do the
following:
1. Go to the link that's gone wonky.
2. Press Alt+F9 to display the field code for the link and note down the
number.
3. Select the heading you want the link to go to.
4. Select Insert>>Bookmark to get the Bookmark dialog up.
5. Click on the Hidden Bookmarks checkbox to display all the hidden
bookmarks (there will be lots).
6. Find the number for the link that's gone wonky, click on it, then click
on the Add button.
Et voila - link fixed! Unfortunately no guarantees that it won't happen
again.
