Hi Derek, I'm just suggesting this, if you don't like the idea trash it. How about you get a couple of willing people out there to help you out with improving the documentation of win32lib? 1) Html format used is so slow. I would suggest you use CHM like Euman did with refman But this time with break-down of topics. Take an example of the MS SDK, very fast yet very big.(BTW, CHM cannot be read on win95 SE so improvise a better solution) 2) Improve the documentation generally on most of the routines especially the create() or createEx(). It was not until today, after reading the internal win32lib code that i found out you could create a menu item with a check using create(). I bet most people didn't know this. The documentation ever since 55.1 has lagged behind. These days i don't bother reading the slow yet big doco, i just open win32lib.ew to know what else i can do with a function. Also, i have realised most win32 programmers when using win32lib tend to turn to use direct API calls to do some functions that are already done in win32lib. I have been keeping a close eye on win32lib trends ever since i subscribed to this list and found out there are a couple of people out there willing to help. I would have taken this task upon me, but unfortunately i don't know a thing about HTML leave alone Compiling the HTML to CHM. However if some one is willing to do this, i will gladly offer the extra help i found out functions can do eg create() What do u say? Jordah Ferguson aka Sir LoJiK
