Ken…. This solution sounds interesting.. could you have text and graphics on the screen at the same time? All in all how did the session go? Roger C@V

Roger: There are graphics embedded in the AutoCAD help file, and the ones that ship with the Microsoft products also. It really is a slick concept. As I said, I don't knoe HOW help files are created, but they seem awful compact for the amount of material they contain. It would seem the whole section in the AutoCAD Customization manual (Chapter 2) is now incorrect, as the AutoCAD for Windows Help file doesn't follow the described format. It is NOT an ASCII file anymore <sigh>. Overall, the comments on my PPT session were good (ouch!! strained my arm patting myself on the back!!<g>), but one common comment on the evals was that it was too long. Maybe 3 days would have been enough? Not to cover the material provided, but that doesn't mean the supplied materials couldn't be a little shorter. -KLF
