Template with built-in help file
 
I downloaded a template today, author is listed as Microsoft Corporation in
file properties. using excel 2003, a "help" window automatically appears
docked on the right of my screen when i open it. i have it saved not as a
template, but as a .xls file on my desktop. this docked help window contains
a small help section custom to the template spreadsheet. Can anyone tell me
how to create such a thing in a spreadsheet that i send out to other users on
a regular basis where it may not be obvious how to use it? thanks.

Provide a URL to the download site.

Maybe something can be done.

Did not know which Template you downloaded. There are several at that site.

I downloaded the Men's Bracket.

I do not get a Help window when the file is loaded on my Excel 2003.

Sorry......not much help from me. Hopefully someone else has observed the same
as yourself and can add to this.
