I am making a Help document using Microsoft Help Workshop and not using HTML
Help Workshop for several reasons (problem with "What's this" button in
Access, I already wrote it in Word and did previous .hlp files, and I would
have to reformat all the HTML pages to match what I have in Word, I had
problems with popup topics, and more€¦)

Here is the question:

I saved my document as RTF using Word 2000, the resulting file size was
7000KB, and worked fine with Microsoft Help Workshop, with all my formatting
intact from the Word document. This was in my old computer.

In my new computer, I am using Word 2003. I took the same file from my old
computer and save the document as RTF. The resulting file size was 12000KB.
In Microsoft Help Workshop, some formatting was lost, but not if I open it in
Word.

Compatibility to Microsoft Word 97 was used in both cases.

If I take a saved document from Word 2003 back to Word 2000, the resulting
RTF file from Word 2000 is still good.

Why is that and how could I make a good RFT file in Word 2003?

I the mean time I am forced to make my RTF file in my old computer€¦


Thanks in advance,

Michael
