[Fractal Cat]

Hi,

How do I open a Windows help file from a menu? I'm using Netbeans.

Thx

I think I've found a solution here

No that didn't work. I'm creating a Help file in Help Workshop but I need to know how to open that file from a C++ program. So if anyone has an idea please let me know.

Use ShellExecute CHM file directly. Alternatively, use HtmlHelp function.
