[AccessD] About Manuals for your databases X posted

Joe:

I wrote a manual for the manufacturing system last year.  Just about
committed suicide but got it done.  For a product I think you need one.  But
for a one-shot app I never write them.

I tried to be consistent about the headings so that I could do an automatic
table of contents and that worked out pretty well.  And a different style
for the figures and tables so I could auto-produce a list of figures as
well.

Haven't done an index, however.

I'd be glad to send you a copy off-line if it would be useful to you.

HTH
