HTMLHelp

After you have created an HTML Help (CHM) file, you will probably want to integrate it with your application and provide context-sensitive Help. Below are code examples that demonstrate how to connect a CHM help file with a programming language or IDE.

Working with a CHM File from a .NET Application

In the .NET environment we use built-in support for the HTML Help (CHM) format.

Call a help topic by Context Id: 

Help.ShowHelp(this, "c:\my_help_file.chm", HelpNavigator.TopicId, "20");
Show the Table of Contents: 
Help.ShowHelp(this, "c:\my_help_file.chm", HelpNavigator.TableOfContents, "");

Show the Keyword Index: 

Help.ShowHelp(this, "c:\my_help_file.chm", HelpNavigator.Index, "");
