I tried to call my chm file from VisualC#.Net.
First I wrote a little program just to test it ( with
Help.Showhelp(this,helpfile)), no problems in this case.
Then I did the same in our actual application and I got following problem:
The help starts with TOC, Index and Search but all links are missing - there
are no url-entries anymore.
 
Hello Andrea,
I tried to call my chm file from VisualC#.Net.
First I wrote a little program just to test it ( with
Help.Showhelp(this,helpfile)), no problems in this case.
Then I did the same in our actual application and I got following problem:
The help starts with TOC, Index and Search but all links are missing - there
are no url-entries anymore ( empty entries in the properites menu/ go to
url.../actual url )
Click to expand...

Please use a more help related newsgroup like:
microsoft.public.helpauthoring
microsoft.public.vstudio.helpauthoring

I'm not sure what you mean with "but all links are missing".

Meaning right mouse click PopUp Menu from the TOC pane?
or
Do you have a empty right hand pane with "Action cancelled"-"Aktion
abgebrochen"?

Assuming you are working with CHM's and your actual application is on a
network drive please check to open your CHM by double click. Missing content
in right hand pane?

Security updates Microsoft released block access to HTMLHelp files stored in
shared network drives. (Local only unaffected when downloaded.) You can read
