OT: CHM Help and D7 |
Sun, Jan 28 2007 8:37 PM | Permanent Link |
Herb (Kraft) | Okay folks.
I want to change several D7 applications from using *.hlp to *.chm. D7 doesn't support CHM. I tried Help Scribble's "HTMLHelpViewer.pas" unit, which isn't working. Suggestions? Thanks |

Herb (Kraft) | For now I got around it via simply shell executing the *.chm.
Now, on to what the <expletive deleted> I am going to do about Vista. |

Use one of these files HTMLHelpViewer.pas or HTMLHelpViewer2005.pas. Works fine for me. You need to specify correct path to chm file for your application or current form Form.HelpFile := ExtractFilePath(Application.ExeName) + HelpFileName; Form.HelpContext := 1234; // this topic id will be used for F1. and call Application.HelpContext(<topic id>);.

Get the SPHtmlHelp files by Maltsev Sergey - I think I got them from
Torry's. It is a simple pair of units that use the D6 and over help integration code to register CHM. You then set your help file to the CHM instead of the HLP, and everything else works just as it did before. I can't believe other solutions, which seem to have compromises, don't do this. /Matthew Jones/ |
