Embedded help file [Gave up on]

[teamdad]

It's me again with a question about accessing an embedded *.chm file. I have a Help.chm file embedded as a compiled resource in my form/program. My question is how can I open and show the file?

Would maybe something with Process.Start("whatever.EXE", "\Help.chm") work? I haven't found the associated program that launches CHM files.

So far this is what I have and it's a dud.

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

        Help.ShowHelp(Me, "Helpme.chm")
    End Sub

If your project has a default namespace defined, you might need to prefix the help file name with it:

namespace.Helpme.chm

I dont believe you can do it as you'll have to have a phisically created file in your hard drive
