Re: TOC Hyperlinks question

Thanks but that's not it. The request is a link in the table of contents
that takes the reader to the beginning of the specific section or subhead
within a section and begins to read. This particular TOC doesn't have page
numbers but the list of the many sections within the document. Some pages
have multiple subheads on the same page. They want the reading to start
when taken to the link to a specific subhead within a specific page.
