Help problems

[G Gerard]

Hello

I have written some help files (MyHelp) using Html Help Workshop version
4.74.8702

When I launch MyHelp.chm from a MSACCESS 2000 application the MyHelp help
window
opens displaying the correct help topic but if I close the application with
MyHelp still
opened I get the following error:

(This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down.)

If I open the Microsoft Access Help from the same application
and then close the application while Microsoft Access Help is still opened
there
is no error, Microsoft Access Help closes with the application as it should.

Any ideas?

Thanks
G Gerard

One idea is to programmaticall y close Help when your app closes down.
Perhaps you can use the FindWIndow API, and then send that window
handle a WM_CLOSE message using PostMessage.
