Help Text

Hi all,

> We have looked at how our help text stored in OS/400 documents, and
> currently maintained using OV/400, can instead be maintained by MS-WORD.
> After the installation of an MS-Word RFT converter, the editing of the RFT
> document does appears to work.  Our problem is that MS-WORD changes hidden
> labels (such as DOCUMENT) so if you then go back to Officevision editing,
> you get  the error "Transformation from RFT:DCA to AS/400 Office Text
> Internal".  Also there is the issue of how to enter the help labels from
> within MS- WORD.  What follows is the screen that comes up in
> Officevision.
