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
