Help w Help (customizrd - HelpContextID
Someone wrote a custom MS Help file for my excel/VB application. How do I incorporate this into my Application?
I looked at the HelpContextID property but am still confused. I guess I could just execute the help with a shell command but then I need to know where it is. (?) Can I attach it to the workbook like a customized toolbar?
I also have a CNT file that goes w the help file that should link to a certain place in the help file when it's respective help button is pushed from a dialog box.
first few lines from CNT file:
:Base wizard.hlp
1 Starting the Wizard=Starting_the_Wizard
1 Creating a File=CreatingaFileUsingthe Wizard
... etc ...
