The FM bugs don't really feature on my radar - the bugs in MS Word are more of a headache. 

AuthorIT - a new player on the block appears to be a possible contender. It uses MS WOrd in its work flow, but only as an output medium to generate PDF, thus does not encounter any of the problems that you would expect to come up against if you are creating a long document from scratch in MS Word. 

I am looking at AuthorIT very closely as an alternative for FM/WWP as a single sourcing solution. However, if FM/RoboHelp where to come a lot closer then this would definitely get my vote. 

My 0.02 

Cheers 

Steve
