RE: Colons in cross references

["Patterson, Jan" <Jan -dot- Patterson -at- esph -dot- com>]

Does the section/subsection you're inserting a cross reference for
contain the colon?

If it does, go to Tools > Options > Print. If Update Links is selected,
then the links are updated anytime you print the document.

Subject: Colons in cross references

I am using Microsoft Word 2000 (we are switching over to 2003 soon, but
not soon enough) and I am having a problem inserting a cross reference
into my document. Our manuals are divided up into sections and
sub-sections. What I would like to do is insert a cross reference for an
entire section as a hyperlink so that a person reading an electronic
copy of the document can click and be taken to that section of the
document. When I insert the cross reference, there is always a colon
included. I can delete the colon and save the document without incident.
However, once I click to print, the hyperlinks revert to their original
state. Can anyone offer any help?

Thanks, 

Shannon
