Ok, I ignored this the first time but I think it's
time to stamp this idea back into the ground before
it grows into another 150+ mails thread :(.
you CAN NOT do that, you can only anchor/quicken
sustainable spells, so no hellblast or death touch
arrows or swords, sorry. [though I may allow that
for items coming from magic richert times, such as
excallibur and some such.]

Yes YOU CAN anchor an instant spell. Grimoire(2nd ed) page 47, paragraph 3
"Links also allow certain type of spells to be connected to other spells
and act as triggers. For example, a detect person spell could be set up as
the trigger for a flame bomb spell. When the detect person spell detects a
person, it activates the flame bomb. Boom."(I guess that's opposed to a
detect person spell detecting a shrubbery :) You are correct in saying
that you cannot QUICKEN an instant spell. SR2 Grimoire page 44, column 2,
first paragraph under the heading Quickening, "Quickening is metamagic that
can make any sustained spell permanent, *without* (their emphasis, not
mine) need for a spell lock!" 'Nuff said.
