Sure, you can certainly change and distribute it all you like. I just thought I might as well distribute what I had done for myself, so part of the effort at least is done, and people who don't like to create databases could use it as is. Please do let me know if any of my help messages are messy, so I can fix the problems in the file I have.
I did have one bug-like problem. I had created a help message for one field and then decided it wasn't really necessary, but whenever I deleted it and then pressed enter to go to the next option, the message would reappear. I finally succeeded in just changing the message to something better, but it really seems like it might be impossible to have no custom help message once you have started to enter one. Maybe someone could confirm this problem, or prove me wrong and explain how to accomplish changing your mind. :-) I thought it might be good for people, especially people at Humanware, to be aware of my experience.

I mean, can I add fields to it and give it to others who may want it? Also, want me to that through and proofread and/or fix the help messages?

I wanted to make it as flexible as possible and couldn't figure out what all people might want to write. There are also things you might want to enter that don't really work wonderfully in a database, so the file is a catch-all place for it. I hope that works for most people. >I am noticing that it sure is hard to type well with a cat between you and the keyboard.
