The short answer is your header can be reduced to this:
<head>
<title>Philip Ogley</title>
</head>
That will fix your "link" problem. But you will have other errors due to Word inserting a bunch of Word specific tags such as "<o:></o>".
I would recommend saving your word document as "Web Page, Filtered" -OR- use Toxaris' Word plugin to clean up and save the file as an ePub. Then you can open it with Sigil, or Calibre Editor, to do final cleaning.

Hi,
Thanks for your help.
So I would insert that piece of code you gave me, in where I had:
<head>
<meta name=Title content="Philip Ogley">
<meta name=Keywords content="">
<meta http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=macintosh">
<meta name=ProgId content=Word.Document>
<meta name=Generator content="Microsoft Word 10">
<meta name=Originator content="Microsoft Word 10">
<link rel=File-List href="Philip%20Ogley_files/filelist.xml">
<title>Philip Ogley</title>
<!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

Is that right?
My problem is that I'm using an old Mac (word 2000) and a chromebook, neither which are compatible with Sigil or Calibre. Plus I'm in the middle of rural France. Very remote. Hence I'm running up hill somewhat? Although, as I'm only uploading to KDP, it views fine on their viewer. But I'm worried it won't when I publish.
What do you think? I have these errors but it views ok on the Kindle Viewer.
Thanks.
