Techwhirlers;
Right you are, Al, it is not an impulse item. However, I have subscribed
and consider it a good value. The first issue had several important
shortcuts that saved me time and money plus a diskette that I have
not explored yet. I recommend it for any RoboHelp user that makes
money creating WinHelp.
BTW, thanks for giving me the opportunity to say something
positive about the newsletter. I don't know Sharon except as
a member of the same profession, and I would not say good
things about any product out of personal loyalty alone. I wrote
to Sharon telling her that I thought the newsletter was valuable
and I am glad to pass it on to other techwhirlers.
Dave.
