Hello
Or use TWebBrowser components that came with Delphi, it will allow you to show the Html pages from inside your application instead of open IE

You can use it easily, in ur code just call

WebBrowser1.NavigateTo('urhelpfile.html');

Yeah i would use a built in browser, much more professional, besides you have complete control and can make it look like what ever you want.

Like mnasman said just use but not "navigateto" but just "navigate"

WebBrowser1.Navigate('helpfilefilepath.html');

Hi, for me the easiest way to do this is:
u wil need:
_A Memo
_A Button
_A Html browser (http://www.appcontrols.com/download.html)(app control)
(http://www.appcontrols.com/download/appcontrolsd7.zip)
(these are very nice components about 15 to 20)

after u have installed these components find the "achtmlviewer" component and put the html code in the memo and the event would be

html1.HTML := memo1.Lines;
html1.Refresh;

Thats it
