How to create .hlp file

[Hack]

Thanks Hack - I would have looked up the link but I'm at work and shouldn't really be looking up such things I'm allowed on vbforums for my work programming project lol.

I've just started implementing a .hlp file in my project using the common dialog "ShowHelp" command, not a lot of info around but I seem to have it figured out

You are right, there isn't a lot of stuff on .ShowHelp

If you have something that works, and works pretty well, would you mind putting together a working example of how to use .ShowHelp, and posting it in the VB CodeBank. I'm sure a lot of other members would find that very beneficial.

Yeah I might do that, only just started it but found it pretty easy once I got it sorted... set the .hlp path, set the topic index, set the mode then .ShowHelp

Surprising there isn't more info on this useful part of the CommonDialog control, so I might see what I can cobble together and post it to the CodeBank as you suggested.
