hell...*I'M* not sure I know what I'm talking about. Thanks to a list member
named Lydia, (..you can learn a lot from Lydia..) who sent me an example of
something I may be looking for, I think I need the following types of
information in the document:

Objects - Description, Object Model, Members (Method, Properties)
Methods - Return Type, Syntax (Command Line, Part, Description)
Properties - Description, Property Type, Syntax (Command Line, Part,
Description)
Events - Description, Syntax (Command Line, Part, Description)
Enumerations - Description, Members (Constant, Value, Description)

If this is accurate, the trick is going to be how do I, with a tenuous hold
on the topic, get this data for only a nominal amount...I don't have the
time to go through a lengthy purchase process. Someone recommended a product
called Document X!, and at $295, can almost fit it in my personal SW
allowance. Anyone else familiar with it?
