On-line help

Dear All,

My software grows organically, as I add new features. Although modest,
I reach the pint where simple 'tool tips' are no longer enough help.
Rather than write a manual (yuch!) I'd prefer to include some on line
help. I wonder how you all do this..

Is there a tool that allows me to set up a LH tree and a RH contents
format?

Should I use a new substack just for help, or hidden fields

Could I use a help mode, where 'mouseOvers' bring up more detailed
field information (seems messy).

I'd be grateful for insight and thoughts about how you address this
problem.

Thanks

All best wishes,
Rob
