Here's an easy one (I hope). I had been using a .hlp file, and calling it from various menus in my program after defining the [login to view URL] file: [login to view URL] = [login to view URL] & "\[login to view URL]" 'previously, when it had been "\[login to view URL]" the subs below had worked fine. Private Sub mnuHelpContents_Click() 10 With cdlHelp 20 .HelpFile = [login to view URL] 30 .HelpCommand = gHelpFinder 40 .showHelp 50 End With End Sub Private Sub cmdHelp_Click() With cdlHELP .HelpFile = [login to view URL] .HelpContext = 14 .HelpCommand = cdlHelpContext .showHelp End With End Sub Private Sub mnuHelpSearch_Click() 10 With cdlHELP 20 .HelpFile = [login to view URL] 30 .HelpCommand = cdlHelpPartialKey 40 .showHelp 50 End With End Sub NOW, I've redone all my help files and have them as a .chm file, which does not get recognized and opened, when I use the above: 'in the submain I set the file [login to view URL] = [login to view URL] & "\[login to view URL]" What changes in the code would one make to make this happen and open it correctly? Or do I need to convert this to .hlp, and if so, what tool do you recommend? ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
