Help Control - Docking/MDI for Windows Forms Forum

Posted 19 years ago by Jake Pearson - Software Developer, Alion Science and Technology

Hi,
Has anyone here heard of a .NET control that will read in a chm file? I would like to add in a help tool windows instead of a modal help like most apps need to use.

thanks,
Jake

I don't know of how to do this with CHM files, but I think you can do it with HTML Help 2 files. I'm not entirely clear on the process, but I believe you have to somehow register the HTML Help 2 files and then they can be accessed through a standard browser control using "ms-help://" url style.

Sorry I don't have a complete solution, but this might help point you in the right direction.

The latest build of this product (v24.1.1) was released 1 month ago, which was after the last post in this thread.
