Marc,
CHM files are Help files. You need a program such as Help and Manual to
create them.
Forget cut and paste with Adobe. Create your doc in Word, then "print" it
to a PDF. You need a full install of Acrobat to do this, but it works
quite
well. Then, in your form, create a button to launch the appropriate PDF.
Or just create a label with an on-click eep and a flyover color to make it
work like a link in Explorer.

Emmitt
I may give that a try if I can't figure out chm files or
until I figure them out.
But in some cases I do not like Adobe. Trying to cut
and paste something from the latest Adobe is a pain,
much easier in Word and older versions of Adobe.
Thanks Marc

Marc,
What we've done is publish the Word documents to PDFs, stored them on the
same share, and put links in appropriate places to the PDFs.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - How to store text and BMP image in RBase
Hi
Currently I am using Word for my help system for my app.
I have pictures of my forms with text around them explaining my program.
I would like to put this into Rbase but am not sure sure what is the best
way.
I know I can store text in Varchar and BMP in Varbit but I want to store
text and
pictures of the form in 1 column and be able to edit the text when
necessary.
Is there an easy to do this or a better way?
Thanks
Marc
