See my other reply to Colin Magee. The Help Workshop is just a help compiler with a few extra utilities (like window definition, context definition, etc). You must use a RTF editor to create the RTF file that is the source for your Help... and this is the big work when the file is a little over a ReadMe file. If you use MSWord for as RTF editor you will find very soon that it's not at all productive and that it's a hell to debug it (wrong links, etc).

Here comes RoboHelp (other tools also): a very good and very productive WYSIWYG environment to create and maintain Helps.
