It's called the Microsoft HTML Help Workshop. A quick Google search for it
will turn up the MSDN articles on MS help authoring.
Also, Robohelp and WebWorks Publisher produce MSHTML help files, but
they're fairly pricey apps. If help files are a regular deliverable for
you, they're well worth the price.

Subject: How does Microsoft create the help files for Microsoft Word?
I have a client that seems to think that there is a software package out
there that creates help files like the one for Microsoft Word. Does
anyone
know what it is? Or is it a custom thingy?
