Okay so its easy to get the HTML out of CHM (legally.. not sure), now how do I 
convert the
CHM file into a web program that runs on my web server and allows people to 
make queries
at my website to search the html files? This is my case for using a database 
from day 1,
for both jobs - instead of using CHM for the desktop and some other database 
for the web
server docs.

BTW Felipe, if you are listening - CHM was not available on Windows CE either - 
someone
has done some work to get it working on Windows CE though.. just as someone got 
SQLite
working on Windows CE. My point is that databases are no worse than CHM for the 
Windows CE
argument.
