Hi there

A bookmark is known as a "Named Anchor" in the world of HTML. Basically it offers a place to link to inside a topic. So the general process is to insert the bookmark, then construct an index term that links to the bookmark.

See Also is a bit more involved. Essentially you define one or more See Also keywords, then link one or more topics to the keyword. You then insert a See Also control that points to the keyword. When the end user clicks the trigger for the control, the list of topics associated with the See Also keyword(s) is presented.

Sorry, but you are losing me when you say "Reference Links". I'm unfamiliar with that particular term.

Cheers... Rick
