Yet, it seems like an easy and important component in the transition to WinDp.
Such a product would have to support XML/HTML. Allowing DP to use this as a
help documentation would be a good first step.

Hi Chris,
I don’t think you will get any luck with DP itself on this, however I have
heard of a DOS TSR which creates hyperlink of whatever looks like a valid URL’s
on the screen…
I have just gone for a quick search for it on my PC, as I thought I had
downloaded it but alas no luck. I can’t even remember what it as called, and I
didn’t even try it, but I thought it could be something useful…
It is probably worth searching Google for it. I had a quick search then and
couldn’t find it, but I think it was on a site with a large number of other DOS
utilities.
Bye
Brian

I apologize if this is already covered territory.
Oft times, I find the required help for a panel exceeds the dos capabilities or
convenience of dataperfect.
Two questions/suggestions; the first is simpler, the second more of an
extension to the first.
1. Is it possible to pass a url in the help panel as a way of passing
additional help for the database - procedures (or an index code, so it jumps to
the appropriate page).
2. Would it be possible to link an external web page to a field: Ie., when a
person clicks on a field, the sidekick browser gets passed a webpage.
That webpage has all the help required for the field.
