>>I am not having any luck with the "Help Workshop" (v4 I think), that comes with Fox 5.0. No matter what I do, when I save and compile, I always get error messages that say my .rtf file is corrupted at offset xxx. I have been using the command line compiler hc35.exe with luck up till now, but we recently switched to Winnt 4.0 and now even that is giving me problems. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Also my experience is that it is important to turn off edit tracking in Word 97 for the RTF Help document(s) or the Help compiler doesn't know what to do with the extra "stuff".
