What are you missing? Involvement, opportunity, committment, job satisfaction... I could go on and on. ;-) We used to treat documentation as an incidental. Now it's a very huge part of the products we ship, to the point where developers are contrinuting to and informing the documentation and the writers are contributing to and informing the code. -- Bill Swallow HATT List Owner WWP-Users List Owner Senior Member STC, TechValley Chapter STC Single-Sourcing SIG Manager http://techcommdood.blogspot.com avid homebrewer and proud beer snob "I see your OOO message and raise you a clue." ______________________________________________ Author Help files and create printed documentation with Doc-To-Help.
