In FrontPage - 
Create an bookmark (or anchor) point, (this is the place that you want to
link to) by highlighting the word (in the glossary page) and using Insert -
Bookmark.  You can then give this point a name.  This inserts your <.a
name="term"> tag.

Now when you create a hyperlink to that glossary page, you will have a drop
down Bookmark list (bottom of the hyperlink dialogue box) of all your
bookmarks.  Choose which one you want to link to.  It will write something
like 'glossary.htm#term' in the hyperlink box.

Subject: Creating a bookmark to go to another file


Hi everyone.  Is it possible to create a bookmark to go to a specific area
in another file?  Here's an example of what I want to do:

I'm planning on creating a glossary of terms that will be one file. Another
file I'm working on mentions some of the terms that are in the glossary.  I
would like to be able to link/bookmark the term in the article to the area
in the glossary of terms page where the term is defined.  If this is
possible, the only downside I can see if that the reader would have to click
the browser's "back" button to go back to the article they were reading.
Also, would the "back" button bring the reader to the exact place before
they click the term's link?  Does anyone know how to do this in FrontPage,
or is there an HTML tag/combination of tags that I can use to accomplish
this task?

I'm currently using FrontPage 2000 to develop web pages, and I go in & do
HTML coding if any tweaking is necessary.  I'd appreciate any help you can
offer me on this subject.  Thank you.
