Anchor to diff page same Space creates a new page

[Lisa Scheuplein]

I am trying to link to a different page using an anchor. I created the anchor using the macro, but when I go to the page I want to link from, and use Link > Advanced > page name#anchorname it creates a new page and does not link to the page I told it.  What am I doing wrong. Is the page name something other than the page name? Is it an ID?

I had a similar problem with funky symbols in the page name. Are the page and anchor names alpha-numeric?
