I posted an item yesterday to announce a Word for Windows macro which 
translates a DOC file into the WinHelp format. The files (HELPOUTL.ZIP and 
HELPOUTL.TXT) have been uploaded to FTP.CICA.INDIANA.EDU. They should be in 
the UPLOADS directory for a few days, then should be moved to 
the WINWORD directory, I would assume.

A Macro for translating Word files into Windows Help files

Introduction
------------

Tired of trying to build Windows Help files? 

Trying to maintain printed documentation as well as on-line help files?

This macro is for you!

Encapsulated in a Template file, HELPFILE.DOT for Word for Windows, the macro 
uses the document's outline structure (defined by the heading 1, heading 2, etc 
styles to build a hierarchically structured HLP file. Cross references can also 
be defined (but are only processed by the registered version - US$20=AUD$28 for 
registration - a mere pittance).

This macro means that you can take a standard Word file with appropriate styles,
and create a Windows Help file (assuming you have the Windows Help Compiler).
