How do I activate HTML Help from my .exe?
How do I activate HTML Help from my .exe?
(OP)
Hello.
I am creating a Clarion program, and I was hoping to ship an HTML Help file with it (I have a compiled HTML file -Help.chm). I put the cwHHGlobal extension template into my application (in the Globals section), put the Help.chm file into the same folder as both my .exe and .app, and inserted the name of the .chm (Help.chm) into the prompt box of the cwHHGlobal extension.
Supposedly, when I press F1 while the program is running, Clarion should intercept the Windows help call and direct it to my HTML Help file. But when I press F1, I get nothing - neither the Windows help file nor the HTML Help file I created.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

RE: How do I activate HTML Help from my .exe?
I have been able to activate the HTML Help (I forgot to add the HTML Help Procedure extension, which by the way seems to have to be added to each procedure in order to call HTML help - there appears not to be a way to just globally call it).
I still, however, can not call a specific page in my help file (i.e. context-sensitive help). The references for the syntax are a little vague.
Thanks for any help.
