Now i understand what you want. Panel group is the answer. They are written 
using a  tag language (UIM). You can find information in the guide to 
programming application display (i think that's how it is called).

Hi,

I am also working on the same application as Padman.We are referring to 
providing help for applications that we write.The application here, involves
the maintenance of a Customer Master files,Equipment files,along with the
appropriate commodity files.

More specifically, we are providing various user defined options in our 
program for editing, deleting and adding records to the master file.So
we need to provide help on these options, intimating the user as to 
what exactly which option will do.Hence we thought that if there are
special ways in which help can be provided to the end user of our
application with minimum coding, it will be of great benefit.

I hope that you all can help me in this matter of how exactly we can
provide "HELP" to the end user.

Thanks in advance,

tats!
