Default How to hyperlink an index entry to a bookmark in a document?

I see the following error message in index on linking an index entry to a bookmark.

Error! Reference source not found.Error!


Reference source not found.Error!
Reference source not found.Error!
Reference source not found.Error!
Reference source not found.Error!
Reference source not found.Error!
Reference source not found.Brief History of Vedas, 1

("Brief History of Vedas, 1" is the index entry (manual entry); a paragraph in the body of text is assigned a Bookmark.)

I use windows 10 and Office365.

I request a way to avoid the error message?

Word does not support the hyperlinking of index entries. For a workaround, see: https://www.msofficeforums.com/117765-post3.html

As for your index entry error messages, that suggests the related XE fields have been poorly coded.
