Abstract
This thesis is intended to explore the major technical challenges facing developers and authors of online help systems who need to integrate online help features into proprietary software programs in a local or network setting, which involves adoption of proven strategies of help system design and help documentation analysis. It discusses the help system development process using the architecture of reusable JavaHelp components from Sun Microsystems. It also explains the programming details of building a sample help system as well as implementation of JavaHelp to integrate online help features into a proprietary software program.
