Working with OMNIS 7 Help

[Rainer R. Greim]

Hallo,
endlich wieder Deutsch schreiben.

For making help and a real docu there are a lot of tools on the market.
Its a question of your budget. If you are using word and have to write  
also real user guides my favourite is doc2help. Quite expensive, but  
fits into office, and does much more than creating the helpfiles.
