If you're using ROBOT (Help Systems), you can put in a lot of info there,
including extensive notes, and print a "run book" from the job listings.
Might not be a reason to buy the product (although I know of one customer
that did just that), but could be OK if already using the product.

Sounds like you need a tech writer. Ours uses MS Word, which can save to
both native Word as well as HTML (in Office '97, I think).
