To create an ALink in a topic that links to a target file

1. Open the HTML file you want to link from, and then position your cursor at the location where you want to create an Associative link (ALink).
2. Click HTML Help ActiveX Control.
   

   HTML Help ActiveX Control

   Opens the HTML Help ActiveX Control Wizard, which enables you to insert or edit the control in an HTML file.

3. In the Specify the command box, click ALink Search, and then choose the appropriate display type and button options.
4. In the Related Topics dialog box, specify the ALink names you want to jump to.
5. For more information about ALinks, see the HTML Help ActiveX control reference.

Notes

• You must add ALink names to the appropriate target topics before the ALink will work.
• Adding an ALink to an HTML file adds an <OBJECT> tag to your file. This allows you to link to any other files that contain the ALink names you specify. When a user clicks the ALink, any topics that contain the ALink names you have specified will appear.
• You can test ALinks in compiled help files.
