My calcified pisiform is playing up - DAMN!

Ummm, again, its VERY late Friday for me, but please:

To QA something, one needs the FINAL system. I mean, to reducto ad absurdum
(simplify stupidly) how could one test a help system based on the func spec
for such? Nope - you NEED the complete final product. So, ship your
"completed" project, with robohelp's DLL's etc, to the testers. The source
doc aint worth shite for QA! Hell, you could run this "source file" through
the Delete utility for all the testers know...

Testers must test the customer version.
