Expert: Ravindra Date: 6/28/2008 Subject: How to link the Help menu contents to one another???
Question In vb6 i have created a program i.e i took 1 form and i have created Help menu using menu editor. The help menu contains the items-Contents,Index,Search. The help menu should work like windows help for this help menu i should only add the things like contents index and search-In contents index and search what ever topics r necessary for my project i will add. Now i have created the help menu in HTML Help work shop. You can install the HTML Help Workshop, by running the setup program in the HTMLHelp directory of your VB CD (VB6 only). Now i have to link it to my project plzzz tell me how to link it my project Plzzz help me....

Answer there are 2 methods, vbhelp and html help/
for html a chm file is needed. if you have a .chm file then
Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" Alias _
"ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As _
String, ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, _
ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim ret&
ret& = ShellExecute(Me.hwnd, "Open", App.Path & "\cliconf.chm", "", App.Path, 1)
End Sub
and for vbhelp
this requires a little bit of work. here's the procedure:
1) download the
HCW.exe from Microsoft.com ( or any other site, try google search)
2) get the tutorial link shown below:
3) you need to create a document in word, then compile it using HCW.exe into a project file then you convert it to .hlp file.
4)associate it with the vb form Menu.
all these will become clear to you once, you visit and download the above links. a little trial and error may be needed.
