Try Microsoft Help WorkShop (free down load from MS) it has worked really well for me. Also you may want to consider doing a DOS FoxPro help file it is easy and fast. They also have programs out there that will take a FoxPro DOS style help file and convert it to a Windows 3.x help file, witch is the type of help file VFP5 uses

Adolph I own Blue sky Robohelp and I should have created the windows help first but did not do it that way. My error but I thought that HTML worked with VFP5. Blue sky includes windows help to html help but not the other way round. I have also found I have to upgrade for it to work with office 2000. And its not cheap so. It seems to require an upgrade every time office updates and its not cheap so I can not recommend Robohelp. A lot of money for a work macro. Allen
Allen:
We use AutoDoc (they have since renamed it to Author-It), and a single write produces Windows Help, HTML help and the printed manual.
It's fairly inexpensive, too.
