There exists a project that is a fork of NDoc - called NDoc 2005. I am not sure if this is the same as that referenced in an earlier e-mail or not... http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=3D163095 I was able to download the source for NDoc2005Beta and such, then open them in VS 2005 and compile. Everything has been working fine, but I don't use anything advanced, just enough to build msdn and windows help type of documents. HTH, John Sacks Senior Programmer/Analyst E-Mail: js...@im...
