Hello everyone,
I need to build a help file for a windows application, what i want to do is
i got 3 forms, on each form when the user click on the "?" button on the top
right corner, a help file associated with that form will pop up. What i
have on hand is my application, a set of HTML files compiled into a compiled
help file format (.chm)... When creating the HTML files, there is one thing
called "keyword" which i need to specific, i reckon there should be some way
to call out each help file using this keyword, but i just dunno how..
Is there any way to make it possible with the things i have on hand? Or if
it is not possible, what should i do to accomplish this?
Thanks
Tony

If you haven't already seen it, there is a useful article on how to
connect HTML Help files to .NET applications at:

If you need instructions on how to add index keywords to your help
file, Microsoft's documentation is available online at:
