Kathy,
I don't know about converting to Microsoft Help for Macintosh, but I do
know of a tool that takes the same help source files (RTF) and compiles
them in a Mac-readable format. That tools is QuickHelp from Altura. We use
it, and it's as painless as it comes.

"Help!"
Does anyone know if it's possible to convert a Windows help file
(created in RoboHELP 4.0) to Microsoft Help for Macintosh? RoboHELP uses
Microsoft's "HCW.EXE" compiler.
Thanks,
Kathy
