There is a way to do this that is explained in help. Enter
"cross-references;inserting with Navigator" in the search box under the
Index tab of Help.
My interpretation of these instructions:
Document A contains the text that you want to link to (it is the "anchor").
Document B is the document in which you want a link back to the text in
Document A.
1) Open both Documents A and B.
a) Insert a bookmark at the beginning of the text in Document A you
want to be your anchor. Give it the name that you want to appear in
Document B as a hyperlink.
2) Open the Navigator window in Document B.
3) Right click Bookmarks Select Drag Mode > Insert as Hyperlink.
4) At the bottom of the Navigator window, change Document B (active) to
Document A (inactive) in the drop down list. (Document B is still open.)
5)Click the "+" in front of Bookmarks. (This opens all of the bookmarks you
have in Document A.)
6) Drag the bookmark to where you want it in Document B.
There are other part of the Navigator list that you can hyperlink from
Document B to Document A also. The one thing you can not hyperlink between
documents is any References.
