What is “Error! Bookmark not defined.”
Well …
This about the 5th site I’ve gone to for help and I still cannot get the bookmark function to work. I’ve now burned about 90 minutes on this.
After setting my bookmarks, I return to my TOC and use the HYPERLINK function to call each of the bookmarks I’ve defined. So now, each of the entries in my TOC displays as an underlined link, but when I mouse any of the entries in my TOC, my mouse pointer does not morph into pointer to indicate that link is ‘hot.’
Any thoughts? Anybody?
hold down the CTRL key and then click
To view all bookmarks in the document in MS Word 2010 go to “File -> Options -> Advanced -> “Show document content” section -> check “Show bookmarks” option”.
This is information which i was needed while surfing in internet =)
you type the name of the bookmark and you then click “Add”. It will create the bookmark for you. However, you cannot include space, numbers or special characters in your bookmarks. Enjoy!
How do I create a bookmark? the Add button is ALWAYS greyed out!
there should be no spaces if you have more than one word.
