See ToolBook instead, or Plus. Guide is a hypertext package. Hypercard is much more than that. If you want to build hypertext systems (like on-line help), Guide will get the job done faster than Hypercard, but Hypercard is a more flexible tool. Guide now has a more customisable environment, and the user has greater control over windows, colours, formats, etc. It has its own scripting capability. -- Roger Hadgraft | hadgraft@civeng.monash.edu.au Lecturer in Civil Engineering | Monash University | phone: +61 3 565 4983 Clayton, Vic. 3168.
