Phil, Uh, oops again, in my haste to be helpful, I neglected to realize that MakeDoc.exw is mostly useful for creating html help documentation for LIBRARIES, not for APPLICATIONS, and I think you're looking to make html help for an application. It looks for user inserted tags relating to global functions, global procedures, and global constants, basically. Sorry 'bout that.
