The reason I say this is that I remember working on a project a couple of years ago where help files were required. The project was being developed using Interdev 6 (but it's part of the Visual Studio package). When we discussed it, a number of the developers mentioned that if we provided the text for the help files there was a function in Interdev that could create them. I'm not sure if that's true, just that was my experience :) HTH Callum	Guest (0)
