Pandoc fails to convert internal HTML links to Word format

Pandoc fails to convert internal HTML links to Word format

I have to use Markdown as my primary tool, and I also use a lot of HTML 
since MD is such a limited doc platform. (Definitely prefer writing in it.) 
I make heavy use of internal HTML links to subsections. Pandoc cannot 
handle these, every single such link is broken, including a TOC linked 
list. Is there a way to get this to work? Thank you

It works for me.  For example, if I do

pandoc MANUAL.txt -o m.docx

where MANUAL.txt is the source of the user manual,
and open m.docx in Word, I see an internal link to
'Creating a PDF' on the first page. I click on this,
and Word takes me right to the appropriate section.

What version of pandoc are you using, and what
version of Word?
