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

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:

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.
