Hi Rick,

 

I was under the impression that MS was no longer supporting the use of .chm?

Here's a wiki link, but a quick look didn't show me a definite answer to my
concern, so maybe it still is (or maybe they changed their mind again?)

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Compiled_HTML_Help

 

Maybe if you read it more thoroughly you can come to a conclusion.

 

You can always opt to create a .html file (or a series of files) for your
help system if you think it's hard to create .chm files or if you think they
may not be supported.  I believe there are many free html generators (even
MS Word will do it for you).

 

I've noticed a lot of the newer apps have been experimenting with this
approach.

 

Hth (and please let us know if you get an answer to whether .chm is going to
be supported),

 

Chip

Subject: Help Files CHM

 

Hi:

Has anyone created a chm help file like the one used for WindowEyes Help?

I puttered with html help WorkShop but didnt get very far this weekend.

Is there something accessible with some decent documentation out there?
