Simply send us the text for your Help file in Microsoft Word Format (.doc) and our qualified North American staff will generate everything you need: Searchable .chm Windows Help File Visual Basic or Visual C file mapping context sensitive help buttons to the corresponding sections of the Help File. Index Tag Creation A free port of your help file into a searchable online html help package for your website. (This free service is available for a limited time only). We give you all the project source files used to create the help file output. (Don't trust any consultants that keeps the source files for themselves, they are trying to to force you to be stuck with them).

We can generate your help from Framemaker also.

Samples The best way to examine the quality of our work is by taking a look at a working sample. Click on the links below to see an example of a help file we created from a customer's Microsoft Word Document. For this project, we created the .chm help file for the customer and a Visual Basic (.bas) file mapping the various Help buttons in the customer's software application to different headings and index markers in the help file.   The customer gave us a list of index terms to implement in the help file. We also provided them with a searchable web based help that was identical to the Windows based help file. The customer was able to put this web based help onto their website.
