    Display compiled HTML help file in VB.NET app

    I have created a compiled HTML helpfile that I want to use in my VB.Net
    application. What code do I need to link this compiled file to the
    help button in my application??

    I have created my application in Visual Studio (VB.Net).

    Thanks

    RE: Display compiled HTML help file in VB.NET app

    if its a .chm file, you can just do a Process.Start(" FileNameHere"), r if its
    an .html or .htm file, put a WebBrowser control on a form,load then form,
    then programmaticall y navigate the WebBrowser control to that file

    hope this helps

      Check out the HelpProvider component in the toolbox.

        Hi

        The last 4 pages of http://www.jososoft.dk/hh.pdf are in English and
        explains how to get the help file working with an application.
        (The first 16 pages are in Danish - my tongue)
