    whatsthis help

    Hi,

    I want to implement whats this help in one dialog. I enabled it from dialog->properties, however I cant figure out how a control in my dialog will receive a message that it was clicked in whatsthis mode and how the help will be displayed.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Of course, thats the purpouse of codeguru isnt it?

    I figured out that it is enough to fill out
    WhatsThisHelpID property of each control you wish to have such help for. Then your app will automatically try to find the topic in the help file you should have prepared in advance with html help workshop or similar editor.
