SUMMARY
In Microsoft Publisher 97, the Name attribute for the Anchor tag can be used to jump to a new location within the same HyperText Markup Language (HTML) page. Microsoft Publisher does not provide a way to add this type of anchor to your publication before you export it in HTML format. If you need to use the Name attribute, you can add this attribute after you export your file from Publisher 97. This article describes the basic functionality of the Name attribute and provides links to more detailed HTML resources.

MORE INFORMATION
Microsoft Publisher 97 does not directly support the HTML Name attribute for the Anchor tag. To use the Name attribute, you must change the HTML code after it has been exported from Publisher 97. You can use a text editor, such as Notepad or WordPad, or an HTML editor, such as Microsoft FrontPage, to make the change.
To create a link that goes to the introduction section of your web page, you would place the following tag in the introduction section of your file:
<A NAME="intro">Introduction</A>
And you would place the following tag, as the source of the link, on your page:
<A HREF="#C">Click Here for my Introduction</A>
