You can create a text link to jump from one HTML file to another in your help project, or from an HTML file to an external Web site or server location. A text link can consist of one character or several paragraphs, but authors typically limit them to a word or a short phrase.

If you use the default setting for HTML Help Workshop, text links appear in a browser as underlined, colored text; the original color changes after a user clicks the link.

What do you want to do?

	Add a text link to an HTML file
	Assign an alternate location for a contents or index entry
	Add a bookmark link to a file
	Create a text link for HTML Help ActiveX control commands
	Assign a window type to a topic when linking
