For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Everyone/Anyone,
As an instructional designer I need guidance in designing what I can
best describe as a document management system.
I have been asked to determine the best way to make a series of Human
Resources Word documents easily accessible from an icon on the desktop.
The end-user should be able to locate documents through a table of
contents, an index, and maybe a key word search.
Currently, the structure is three levels:
Manual
Topic
Document
If anybody has any suggestions or a sample of a similar project, please
let me hear from you. I don't want to reinvent the wheel.
