WINDOWS 3.x based document browser with hypertext facilities.

Request for Information.

A windows 3.x based program with hypertext like facilities is being sought
for use in a helpdesk/support enviroment.

Procedure manuals, reference manuals and contact directory documentation
and other similar information are being moved online. 

This information is being used by customer service and support personnel 
and needs to be readily accessible.

A product with a Windows Help like interface or similar is being sought 
for evaluation or trial. 

Current Documentation exists in Word for windows format as well as IBM DCF and 
GML markup.  

Ideally the document conversion process markup etc would be automated
or mouse driven or require little additional effort in terms of markup or
processing, although this is not a requirement. 

The product must run on a 386 or better Windows 3.X/DOS 5.0 Standalone PC or
be able to function as a Microsoft LAN manager application.

The product must have a Windows-based GUI.

Anybody with information or an organization offering a product which 
fits within these broad guidelines is encouraged to respond to
