How was the QBOHO set up from the qb help files? I want to create an identical help system as QBhelp in QB.

I'm, not sure how toonski did the help system. My guess is he screen captured all pages and just image mapped it all.
Maybe this isn't what you want, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to post about it... you might be interested in seeing HELPMAKE by microsoft. With it you can extract the QB help contents and recompile a new help file with your own stuff in it.
It's for download here:

Ok, it looks simple enough.
If anyone (toonski?) had a converter to HTML tag format, it would be even better too, so that it could be read into memory easier.
