We are working with a small company and making enhancements to the software, which necessitates changes in Help. Someone suggested putting the release notes in Help. I like the idea of communicating changes, since I can't rely on management communications to do this. I don't want to put in 'Release Notes', but perhaps something a little more user freindly. My book titles all start with "managing..."

Suggestions?

A fairly standard approach is "What's New?"

Thank you, Peter. You have been very helpful in the past and I appreciate your suggestion. I thought about What's New too, but just wanted to run it by the user community.

Thanks again for all your help in these forums.

We use "New Features", then highlight the books/topics with the red star in teh HTMLHelp that have been changed. This page then links to the updated topics.

We are also considering apply a style to but a formatting on new or updated content. This would direct the user to exactly what had changed.
