What's up?! My knowledge of other programming languages is very limited and so I turn to the forum for this. Here is my problem/issue: I need to design a help system that is interactive with Visual C++ and can be changed and altered quickly. As an example: Say that HTML can somehow interact with Visual C++(besides the standard ActiveX thing). The help system displays an HTML page with a series of links on it. Each of these links when clicked will take you to a different HTML page and/or call a DLL function. <-I have no idea if the aforesaid example is possible.
I guess what I am really asking is: How and with what do I implement a help system like Windows XP troubleshooter, where the links and dialogs actually interact with the system as well as the user. I am not sure how Microsoft does this but I assume that it can be reproduced.
Thanks in advance for any replies, Vince

May be the help window is an application...not the standard help file which are interpreted by some dlls...

Did you check google if there exists any interactive help file creator? If there it will certainly be listed on google...

Hope this helps...
