I am creating an html newsletter to email. This will be a template that will be opened in outlook express through messaging\new message using.

I will copy and paste text from word into the file. I want to create links at the top (news headlines) that link down the page to the story.

In HTML I have used anchors to do this. For this job I need to do it in word. In word I have tried creating a hyperlink to headline and also cross-referenced to a bookmark.
The hyperlink apears when the email is sent but it does not link.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Scott

Why not just upload the newsletter to wherever your web-site is and provide a link to it in the e-mail, of perhaps e-mail them and iframe with the src attribute set to the url of the newsletter

If you're using Outlook to send emails:
Create the layout of the page in regular HTML (use Dreamweaver/Frontpage or Notepad). Anything is possible: anchors, layers, forms.... and save file in:

\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Stationery

and you can select your html-file in Outlook this way:
Choose: Action >> New Mail Message Using >> More Stationery
and your HTML-file will be one of the files!
Outlook wil send the pics with the message....

Tip for sending de newsletter: do not send the file to all recipients, but only to yourself, and add all the recipients to the Bcc-field. This way no recipient can see the emailadresses of the other recipients!


For Outlook Express:
1. Choose Format >> Rich Text (HTML)
2. Choose View >> Source and the 2nd guide-card (I can't remember the correct english word for it) will give you the opportuniy to copy-paste the HTML-code into it.
(or do the same as described for Outlook)

Freely translated from dutch into english it's: tab-page. My dictionary doesn't contain the word :(
