Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 39136
WW8: hyperlinks with bookmarks in word documents cannot be executed
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:22:49 UTC
The OOo 1.0.3 word processor fails to recognize bookmarks in Word documents hyperlinked to each other.
Did you try with newer versions of OOO? 1.0.3 is very old so please upgrade to 1.1.4 or even 2.0 snapshot build and try again. Meanwhile there have been many bugfixes in OOo. For the case, the problem still occurs, please reopen issue AND attach a sample document, which shows the problem. Thanks for supporting us!
Closed.
In fact hyperlink with bookmark in MS-Word format document works well unless bookmark names do not contain accentuated letter. I will attach an archive with 2 files test1.doc and test2.doc. Open test1.doc with OOo and ctrl-click on each hyperlink. The link on word "Was" open file test2.doc but at the beginning instead of at the word "Was". Both links on words "suddenly" work well (jump to the same "suddenly" in test2.doc). Tested with OOo 3.0.1 FR and OOO310m5 (lang-pack FR) on Ubuntu 8.04. Kind regards JBF
Sorry I made a mistake in my previous comment. Please read as follows : In fact hyperlink with bookmark in MS-Word format document works well unless bookmark's name contains an accentuated letter. Regards JBF

MRU->HBRINKM: see attached document, the imported hyperlinks in it cannot be executed, e.g. Writer is not possible to find the target document.
Accentuated letters not incriminated (on MAC OSX). After discussion on the French forum (http://user.services.openoffice.org/fr/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=15493&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a), it seems that the remark made above by JBFaure is true only for Windows XP : there the problem is only with accentuated letters in the bookmark. But the problem is trickier on MAC OS, where OpenOffice fails to reach the bookmark even with non-accentuated letters. I made a set of tests, please see the compressed files in ANCHOR_TESTS.zip Best regards. Vincent P.
