HTML Help Files

Does anyone know how to create those HTML Help Files? They have the file extension *.chm. I'm creating my first major VB program and need to know how to do this

It's called HTML Help Workshop and you can find it by searching http://msdn.microsoft.com.

Thanks a lot Alex

I found HTML Help Workshop. It says not to run it on Win 98/ME/2k/XP
I run Win 98. What am I supposed to do?

Being a guest means I can't edit my posts.
Anyway, it actually says that Win 98/ME/2k/XP should not run "Hhupd"

Turns out Hhupd is the HTML Help update, not HTML Help Workshop
Don't worry about it

i have a problem when i do it because when i install it it says something like


cant find 'something' 2000 SR1 source code


1. That was a really really old post, don't know how you found it
2. More detail will allow for more help

im sorry but i cant recreate the error but when i instal it is asks me if i want to install and when i say yes it does nothing but close the window.

Guy with the 2000 error thingy: Are you running windows 2000? I'm guessing you upgraded from 98/ME (I swear I remember reading LOADS of errors about that... But then people never understand why "upgrading" is crap, instead of going for a complete re-install... *sigh*).

Anyway, you should have an installation disk somewhere. Else, my opinion: use google.

springo: what install are you talking about? The HTML helper version 1.4?

Exactly. You have to make yourself clear.

never mind i sorted it out
thank you for trying to help
