Call specfic file in CHM file

Hi All,
I have created .chm file. Now I want to open specific htm file on press of F1 on the form. How do I give the path ? I am using following code to call chm file:
If pVal.MenuUID = "275" And pVal.BeforeAction = True Then
                If SBO_Application.Forms.ActiveForm.TypeEx = "ChkRdo" Then
                    Dim psi As New ProcessStartInfo()
                    psi.UseShellExecute = True
                    psi.FileName = "C:\Documents and Settings\Harish Patil\Desktop\Checkbox and Option button\ChkOpt\ChkOpt\New_HTML_Help.chm"
                    Process.Start(psi)
                    BubbleEvent = False
                End If
            End If
This works fine but call the main chm file. How do I call specific file?
Thanks & Regards

Hi Sheetal,
If u want to open a different file depending on the Form Type and if u dont have many different form types the i guess u can use the following code snippet.
If pVal.MenuUID = "275" And pVal.BeforeAction = True Then
If SBO_Application.Forms.ActiveForm.TypeEx = "ChkRdo" Then
Dim psi As New ProcessStartInfo()
psi.UseShellExecute = True
psi.FileName = "C:\Documents and Settings\Harish Patil\Desktop\Checkbox and Option button\ChkOpt\ChkOpt\New_HTML_Help.chm"
Process.Start(psi)
BubbleEvent = False
ElseIf SBO_Application.Forms.ActiveForm.TypeEx = "ChkRdo" Then
'Past the above same code with a different file name
End If
End If
like that u can open different files, or if u have name different files and forms.. then its better to use the Case statement instead of the If clause.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Vasu Natari.

  • How to convert .hlp files to .chm file in windows 7 ???

    Need to know the steps....

    As a moderator can I ask that people be more specific. Had you stated that at the outset it would have saved RoboColum(n) from stopping work to prepare the list he gave you.
    Creating a CHM is as simple as going to the Single Source Layout pod and opening the Microsoft HTML Layout, then setting the options you require. Help for those can be accessed by pressing F1.
    If you have problems with any of the steps, then come back with specific questions and someone will be happy to help.

  • Help: External Links not coming properly in generated chm file

    Hi
    I am a new user of RoboHelp for Word/HTML. I am currently
    having Robohelp 6. But I have also used evaluation version of
    Robohelp 7.0. I am trying to convert .HLP files into .chm files.
    I would like to give an example for explaining things:
    Say I have two .HLP files say AHelp.hlp and BHelp.hlp. Now
    AHelp contains a link to some page (say VA_X.htm) in BHelp. And
    this link works correctly. When I generate CHM files from these HLP
    files, then though the link is correctly highlighted in AHelp. But
    it points to some incorrect page like BHelp.chm::/VA_X..htm.
    Whereas in BHelp.chm the name VA_X.htm has changed into say
    BHelp_Voltage_Amplifier_X.htm.
    So what can I do to correct this problem so that the links
    are generated correctly?
    Plz help!!
    Thanks
    Regards

    Hi. Sorry for the slow response. We "gurus" (ha!) are
    employees like you and have to balance responding against our
    workload. We do try to answer what we can when we can.
    As to your specific problem, the way interhelp file links are
    handled between HLP and CHM files is different. I have to admit to
    not converting HLP files that had inter-help links so I may be off
    the mark here. That said, I suspect your course of action will be
    to go into each inter help file link and re-add it. You can do this
    by double clicking on the link, clicking on the "Remote Topic"
    option and selecting the CHM file to link to. You'll be asked to
    copy the CHM into the project directory and then you can select the
    correct topic.
    I'm happy for someone else to chip in here if there is an
    easier way.

  • How can I add .chm files (ebooks) to my itunes library to sink with my ipod touch?

    how can I sink .chm files to my ipod touch, I can`t even add them to my itunes library...

    I downloaded this app called CHM+ Lite.. Launch the app and Click the "+" Sign on the top right corner
    You will see an address like : 192.168.1.100:8080
    Type this in your browser on your computer.  You will be able to upload the file directly into the app.

  • Importing CHM files

    I inherited a user manual, originally in the form of a
    monolithic MS Word document from which PDFs could be created in any
    number of ways - and an outsourced RH *.chm help file.
    We have moved to the Tech Comm Suite (patched.to latest
    level).
    I have successfully converted the manual to a FM book, the
    PDF's are fine and I can even generate an RH file - of sorts.
    To get the RH formating to be as before I tried to
    open/import/... the old CHM file - without success, despite the
    existence of instructions how to do it in the RH Help - do a search
    on "Decompile". The so-called HTML studio doesn't exist in the TCS
    version of RH.
    (There are third party decompilers, but they are less than
    satisfactory since there is no obvious way to use their output with
    RH.)
    What now?

    Hi all
    As my friend and colleague Peter stated, the offline help
    works better. So why my post? It's to advise that you may need to
    close and restart RoboHelp in order to see a change in the help you
    get from RoboHelp. At least, on my PC I have to. Maybe others will
    be different. But I thought I'd mention it in case you decide to
    try it and didn't see anything change.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Map ID Processing for a CHM file

    This is just a question so I understand fully how this
    works...
    I have created a Map file for my project and assigned numeric
    map ID's to each topic that needs to be linked from my application
    to my CHM file. I have a topic with:
    Topic Title = "Historical HPI Data Viewer"
    File Name in source = "Historical_HPI_Viewer_Overview.htm"
    MapID = 60
    My developers use the map ID of 60 and are having a problem
    getting to the topic (all other maps work). Not sure what the
    problem is just yet (developer just emailed this morning that "it's
    not coming up"). I tested in the CSH tester in the Tools tab and it
    works fine.
    I just want to understand how the CHM file interprets the map
    ID sent to it and would like to know how the map ID works with the
    topic and the call from the application.
    Does RoboHelp put the map ID in the topic source somewhere?
    I cannot find any notation of the map id in the topic source.
    Is this put into the CHM file when compiled or does it
    interpret the Map ID to the Topic Title?
    What if the topic title is modified and no new Map file is
    generated, is this a problem?
    As always, any information would be appreciated.
    Thanks - Michael F Weart

    Hi Michael.
    There are two parts to context sensitive help. The first is
    the map file that assigns a mapid number to a topic. This uses a
    topic id that is linked to the file via the second element - the
    alias file. This file - look for the project's .ALI file - contains
    the topic id and the file name. Hope this helps.

  • HtmlHelp doesn't display my chm file for HH_DISPLAY_TOC

    Hi there,
    I have an MFC application to display a CHM help file
    generated from
    RoboHelp. I override WinHelp to map HELP_* macros to HH_*
    macros such as
    HELP_CONTENTS to HH_DISPLAY_TOC and HELP_CONTEXT to
    HH_HELP_CONTEXT, and call
    htmlhelp API to open the CHM file. At runtime,
    HH_HELP_CONTEXT works because
    pressing F1 key does bring up the CHM file. However,
    selecting 'Contents'
    menu item in 'Help' menu of main menubar has nothing
    happened. The CHM file
    doesn't appear. I noticed that HH_DISPLAY_TOC definition in
    htmlhelp.h has
    the following line:
    "#define HH_DISPLAY_TOC 0x0001 // not currently implemented"
    It comments as not currently implemented. However, I didn't
    find any clue in
    MSDN to indicate it not currently implemented.
    Does anyone have any clue on the problem and any workaround?
    Thank you

    I should preface this by saying I am not a programmer ;-) ,
    but I had this exact issue with our software program. We could not
    get the Help to be called from the menu. We create the software gui
    using Delphi 2005 and we use HTMLHelpViewer2005 to get Delphi to
    recognize the .CHM file.
    This is the code that our programmer ended up using:
    htmlhelp( MenuMainForm.Handle, 'path\ourhelp.chm',
    HH_HELP_FINDER, 0);
    path\ourhelp.chm would be the location of your .CHM file :-)
    I hope that helps you in some way, have faith because it can
    be done ...
    Thanks,

  • RoboHelp 8 HTML - context sensitive chm file does not open?

    This works:
    RoboHelp_CSH.RH_ShowHelp(0, "C:\\RoboHelp\\!SSL!\\WebHelp\\XHelp_File.htm", RoboHelp_CSH.HH_HELP_CONTEXT, 2);
    This doesn't
    RoboHelp_CSH.RH_ShowHelp(0, "C:\\RoboHelp\\!SSL!\\Microsoft_HTML_Help\\XHelp_File.chm", RoboHelp_CSH.HH_HELP_CONTEXT, 1);
    Why does the context sensitve calls of a chm file not work?
    Does it require a different map file?

    Hi there
    I believe the actual call is different.
    Here is a copy/paste from an older RoboHelp HTML CHM file that we might use as an example:
    Window-level Help for Windows applications
    To call a topic using a map number, make a call to the HTML Help API using  the following syntax:
    HWND  HtmlHelp(Window(), “c:\path\helpfile.chm”, HH_HELP_CONTEXT,  Number);
    To call a topic using a file name, make a call to the HTML Help API using  the following syntax:
    HWND HtmlHelp (Window(), “c:\path\helpfile.chm”,  HH_DISPLAY_TOPIC, "topicfile.htm");
    Hopefully that helps.,. Rick

  • CHM file looks fine on my Desktop - but Topic contents missing in Dropbox

    When I try to zip the .CHM file and mail it to the developer or when I upload it to Dropbox everything seems to be fine. The file is 5.8 MB (72 Topics)
    But when he tried to open it all he sees are the purple "books" and the individual Topic Titles - but the Topic pages are not appearing.
    What am I doing wrong?
    He also needs the mapping numbers for all 72 Topics. I generated these - now how do I send them to him?
    Where is the file I need and what is it called (BCCSDefualt.h ?)
    I am using RoboHelp 10 on a Windows 7 computer - haven't used RoboHelp in 6 years so I am very rusty!

    Hi there
    It's because of the security restrictions Microsoft implements for CHM files.
    Have your recipient save the file to their local hard drive before opening it. If there is still no content visible after doing that, they will need to "unblock" using the instructions at the link below:

  • Reading .chm files

    I recently took the plunge and purchased a Macbook Pro and yes it is a dream!
    That said I had problems reading .chm files to which one of the discussion forum users alerted me to something called a .chmox reader.
    Whilst the chmox viewer serves my immediate needs i.e. allows me to view my .chm application; this application has files/application icons/objects embedded in it e.g. .xls, .doc & .ppt files which on my windows PC I was able to click on and open.
    My problem now is that it is a viewer which means that I can see these objects but cannot launch them.
    Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can solve this problem?
    Leo.

    Are you using this reader? http://chomx.sourceforge.net/
    To view XLS, DOC and PPT files you will need MS Office or one of the open source office suites like OpenOffice.org or, its cousin, NeoOffice.

    Hi,
    Please use the user – Exit as mentioned below , maintain a ‘Z’ Table to pick up the logical activity type combination with personal no, and at time of saving the Network activity system will populate the required activity type. This works surly.
    The following SAP enhancement is available for networks in the Project System:

    You can use this enhancement to add new customer-specific fields to network activities in table AFVU. To process these fields you can create your own screen, which the user can call up when maintaining networks. or from the project planning board.
    The enhancement CNEX0008 contains the following enhancement components:

  • Disappearing/Reappearing CHM files

    I've had a bit of a naming snafu with my CHM files. Turns out
    that the names I gave some of the files were too long and had
    underscores, which caused problems when I committed the projects to
    Subversion (the software versioning app we use). I've tried
    creating new CHM files and deleting the old ones but the old ones
    come back. I've tried deleting the new ones and just renaming the
    old ones but they both come back.
    I know that the information must be stored in another file
    type in the project I can't see where to trace this down and how to
    fix it. I need to resolve this issue before I continue with my
    documentation and time is getting short. Anyone have any ideas as
    to what I'm doing wrong and what I need to do to fix this? Thanks.
    -Trip

    Thanks. I knew there was a setting, I just didn't remember
    how to get to it. Now that I've been tinkering around, I need to
    figure out a way to set specfic pages to open when I open the
    project such as specifying an "introduction" page to appear by
    default. I know I can do this when I initially create a project.
    Where do I go to reset this option after the project is created?
    Thanks.

  • RH9-chm file Bug when clicking on a sub-topic heading on TOC.

    Hi all,
    Today I have a bug that I wonder whether someone working with Robohelp HTML 9 has or not.
    In my TOC, I create book 1 and then create page 1, page 2 for this book. The book linked to topic Startup.htm. Page1 and page 2 linked to two different bookmarks in this topic. Then I generated the project to .chm file.
    On the Content tab, expanded the book, and then clicked page 1 or page 2 to see its content.
    In the first time, the content of the selected page was shown on the right pane, but the book was collapsed automatically. --> This is bug ?
    I had to expand the book again, I clicked and clicked again on page 1, and page 2, that bug did not occur anymore.
    Anyone used to in this situation, please help me the resolution. Thanks.

    Hi there
    From what I'm seeing I'm guessing the following items have been configured.
    You are using the option to Single Click Books to expand them.
    You are auto-synchronizing the displayed topic to the TOC.
    Like Colum, I'm unable to duplicate the issue. I tried using both the 32 bit and the 64 bit versions of the HTML Help viewer. Neither version seemed to present the behavior you are describing.
    However, I do note that when you have the setup enabled that you do, clicking any topic outside the book that is expanded will typically cause the Book to collapse. When you look at things in the Microsoft HTML Help Workshop, the option RoboHelp calls "Single Click to Open Books" is labeled differently. There, it is labeled "Only Expand a Single Heading". So the book collapsing is really sort of an expected behavior.
    I might suggest the following changes. The changes I'm proposing *MAY* change the behavior.
    Instead of pointing to bookmarks within the same topic that is linked to the book, duplicate the topic you linked to. Then remove the section you only want seen if they click the book itself. Link the pages of the TOC to the new topic. Additionally, you would want to edit the topic you link to the pages so that the part the book itself links to is removed.
    My thought is that perhaps your odd behavior is stemming from the fact that your book and the pages inside are really linking to the same topic, just at different places. Perhaps something about that situation is confusing the HTML Help Viewer. And that triggers another thought. If it's a bug, it's not a RoboHelp bug but a bug in the HTML Help Viewer that is manifesting. And RoboHelp can't fix a Microsoft bug. Heck, even Microsoft isn't likely to fix it at this stage.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Network CHM files

    I have an application that can be installed to a network
    drive and then used from multiple workstations. Windows/Vista
    security now makes it difficult to just install the app and use the
    CHM help files from the server. I do not want the help to live on
    local machines and it is not feasable to store the help on a
    webserver since not all workstations may have web access. If there
    are any suggestions of how to be solve this problem, they would be
    much appreciated.
    Note that this is a old legacy app that has happily used HLP
    files from the network for many years. I just migrated all of the
    HLP files to CHM but I am still at square one it seems...
    Thanks for any ideas or suggestions.

    WebHelp sits on a server and can be accessed from there by
    the application.
    By pushed, do you mean installed? If the user nonetheless
    will always have access to the server to obtain the help, then is
    that an option.
    If not, you can either install a CHM locally or now you can
    install the webhelp locally. Previously running webhelp locally
    brought up a yellow information bar unless various IE settings were
    changed. Not really what you wanted for an end user. Now you can
    create the webhelp with the Mark of the Web added and it will run
    locally. I believe links to PDFs may not work so check that out if
    relevant.
    I am guessing that for your developers, it means they only
    have to change the path to the help so it could be quite a saving.
    Otherwise the calls to a CHM topic would be different.
