We present HST GHRS and STIS observations of five QSOs that probe the prominent high-velocity cloud (HVC) Complex C, covering 10% of the northern sky. Based upon a single sightline measurement (Mrk 290), a metallicity [S/H]=-1.05+/-0.12 has been associated with Complex C by Wakker et al. (1999a,b). When coupled with its inferred distance (5
