opening help file from menu

[smchristensen]

I have attached a html help file to my app. I used install shield to put it in the program files with my program I want to open that up if they want to view the help menu. I need to gets it path some how, right?

How can I do this?

[Johnny101]

in the Sub Main of your project (or whatever your "start-up object" is) - set the App.HelpFile property to the current directory:


Sub Form_Load()
App.HelpFile = App.Path & "\myhelpfile.chm"
End Sub




or something like that.

hope this helps,

john
