However, in order to create : help files, one needs a "Rich Text Format" editor. The manual lists: : : - Microsoft Word for Windows : - Microsoft Word for the PC : - Microsoft Word for the Macintosh : - Other word processors that support RTF (of course none are listed) : : I have WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS, which is about to be upgraded to WPWIN. : Does any one know of any "other word processors" that support RTF ? This question is probably in the FAQ for comp.windows.ms.programmer, but I want to caution you about RTF and WPWIN. Most people who have used WPWIN and Word for Windows 2.0 prefer Word for Windows. In addition, it supports RTF better than any other program, according to people who try to do really weeny things with their help files. I've authored 2 different Help files using Word for Windows and have been entirely satisfied. I used to be a die-hard WP5.1 for DOS user, but now I've kicked the habit. Robert
