URL's

[Sandy]

I have a 200 page document in word that has a table of content. I want to
create URL's so that you can click on a certain topic and it will take you to
that part of the document. When I did this, it directs you to the bottom of
the previous page of the topic. Example, topic starts on page 7, click on
the URL and you are sent to the end of page 6. What am I doing wrong?

Probably you have a manual page break before the heading of each topic to
force it to start on a new page. The problem with that is that the page
break is the beginning of the same paragraph as the heading, so that's where
the hyperlink goes.

Remove the manual page breaks, and add the "Page break before" setting to
the definition of the style applied to the topic headings.
