Link to Word 2007 bookmark from HTM

[Nick]

From a prior post, I did not receive any responses so I assume this is a bug
or there currently is no documentation for a workaround, so i would like to
suggest either a hotfix, solution, or workaround be published. Here is the
issue:

Prior to Office 2007, we were able to use <a href="test.doc#Chapter1"> to
open a word document and to a specific bookmark, set in the document. Now
that we have Word 2007, with this code <a href="test.docx#Chapter1"> we get
an error message that states: "Cannot find
'file://<path>/test.docx#Chapter1'. Make sure the path or Internet address
is correct."

Can anyone please help provide a workaround to allow us to link to a
specific locaiton inside a Word 2007 document from a simple HTML page?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Actually that is the exact problem I'm running into, but this is on Windows
XP Professional SP2 or SP3. I wrote a comment on the bottom of that page
stating this occurs with Windows XP too, so hopefully Microsoft will look at
Windows XP also. Thanks Peter for providing that site.
