Subject:Creating a Glossary in Word From:Ellen Roddy <techwrit -at- USIT -dot- NET> Date:Tue, 16 Sep 1997 10:49:02 -0400
When I used Doc-2-Help to create both documents and help files, I could
mark glossary terms and add definitions. Now, when using Word by itself,
it tells me to use hidden text. Hidden text doesn't have a long enough
field to enter a good definition. Am I missing something besides
FrameMaker?
I created a separate file as my solution, but does anyone know how to do
this in Word?
