how to use bookmarks in a report ??

I have a report with three different charts.
I would like to provide a link to each chart at the top of the report - so
when a user clicks the link, they are taken to the relevant chart.
Can anyone tell me how to create a bookmark on a chart (or a textbox, or
anything!) - and link to it.
I've looked at Microsofts "how-to" explanation - but it is vague, and gives
no example
TIAYou can create bookmarks by setting the "Document Map Label" on the
properties tab. You can set this on textbox columns, and doesnt look like you
can set this on charts. But the work around is -
Just above the chart, create a empty textbox. Right click on the textbox, go
to properties and on the visibility tab set the visibility to hidden.
(Because you dont want to see the textbox) Next on the Navigation tab on the
document map label enter "Chart1" also fill in a BookMark ID . Lets say
"Chart1BM". Now deploy the report and see. Since you created a document map
label, you will see a document map on the left side of the report, which will
take you directly to the chart1. Also if you want to jump to the chart1 from
somewhere in the report (and not from the document map). Right click (from
that point where you want a link to Chart1), go to properties and then select
navigation, and selecte jump to bookmark, and type in the bookmarkname name
that you gave before- "Chart1BM".
Hope that helps.
The document label is to create a table of contents type of thing, and the
BookMarkID is to set BookMarks

select the item to be bookmarked. In the properties window (View |
Properties Window), there is a field called 'Bookmark'. Enter any unique
string in the bookmark property e.g. "bookmark1"
select the item that will serve as a link to the bookmark. Right-Click and
select 'Properties'. In the properties dialogue box - go to "Advanced >> |
Navigation tab| jump to bookmark". Enter the unique string "bookmark1" and
hit OK.
Preview the report and click on the link to jump to the bookmark.
The above will work for charts too, as they also have a 'bookmark' property
that can be used. I have used this method to drill-down from one chart to a
second more detailed chart via 'properties | navigation | bookmark'
