Application Help File

[ericl_nz@yahoo.co.]

Hi,

Is there a way to open the application help file using scripting? I specified the "Use Help File" under the Miscellaneous Options and it seems that the only way to open the help file I specified is from the floating menu that pops up when the user the right clicks the mouse.

I wanted to include a Help option in the application menu. And from there I intend to open the help file programatically.

Thanks
Eric

I use this in ffish:

Shell.open("yourhelpfile.hlp")

[SWFKit]

The help file can be launched by pressing F1, or by sending a message to the main window, as shown in the following code

Application.sendMessage(getMainWnd().handle, 0x0112, 32778, 0);

Thanks for all your help. Both solution works!
