I need to know if OI 3.6 has a developing tool that allows me to build help files. My company is using OI 2.5, buy we are interested in migrating to OI 3.6 and a tool for building "F1" is fundamental.

As in 2.5 you can do quick help. As in most development environments, if you want more (i.e. Windows Help) you but a 3rd party product like DocToHelp or RoboHelp.

Someone gave me a hint, from which I've build a help system for our needs. It works a lot like AREV in that when F1 or HELP is selected,

and there is no help, a blank space comes up into which help can be added. If there is help, it is displayed with a button to edit the help, and when clecked, brings up the edit window with the existing

text which can then be modified. A call to the subroutine (F1) is made from the help menu on each form.

If you would like more info, and copy of the subroutines I've built, let me [email protected]

I'm probably being really[/b] obtuse here, but if you make the HELP.HELP quickevent send a NOTES event to @FOCUS instead of a HELP event then the system automatically duplicates the AREV functionality of prompting for a help message. I just assumed he wanted Windows help. [email protected] Sprezzatura Ltd World Leaders in all things RevSoft </QUOTE> —- === At 25 NOV 1998 04:21PM Paxton Scott wrote: === <QUOTE>Hmmmm.
