Abstract

The invention includes a tool for creating hypertext enabled documents based on one or more source code files wherein calls to programs, subprograms, or functions are hyperlinked to corresponding code sections. The tool may also add documentation to explain interrelationships among code components and variables. Furthermore, a user may access the tool over the Internet or intranet in order to invoke the creation of hypertext enabled documents and then save the resulting documents within a database or download the documents to a local drive.
