Writing Topic Text

If you have created help stubs for context-sensitive help, you can write the topic text as soon as information becomes available. For information on designing and writing your topic text, see the "Topic Style Guidelines" section in Overview of Help System Development."

Use manual numbering rather than MS-Word’s autonumbering feature. Using manual numbering avoids formatting problems in your compiled help system, such as random or deleted tabs.
