  • How to call .chm Help File

    How to call .CHM help file on click of button through the dialog? I tried using the command WinHelpCall() but unable to find the required result.

    Can anyone provede me a quick suggestion.
    Thanks in Advance

    DIAdem doesn't have a method to open .chm files because these files are Microsoft help files, rather than DIAdem specific help files. However, there is a KnowledgeBase on Microsoft's web page that may be of help. You can find this document at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=209843. I found this by doing a web search for "Programmatically open .chm". I hope this helps you.

  • CHM help file and java

    is there any way to open a chm help file using java (so that the help viewer starts up)? this program will probably display a chm if it's running on a windows machine and in html if not

    Useing RunTime Class in Java you can opern the CHM help file using the hh.exe
    The hh.exe will be present in the windows directory.
    See if this helps.
    Your doubts are not related directly to JNI.
    Didnt I misunderstand.

  • Run chm help file through java code

    hello,
    would you tell me how can i run a help.chm file using java code. i am trign this but no luck.
    first try
    Process pp=run.exec("C:/Program Files/Internet Explorer/IEXPLORE.exe ./res/bobftphelp.chm" );
    Second try
              Process pp=run.exec(" ./res/bobftphelp.chm" );
    It run fine a help.doc file but not help.chm file.
    please help me
    Thanka in advance
    Ravi Charan

    The second address given to that function, does it relate to the class that its being called from? cause i've got
    Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:\\WINDOWS\\hh.exe .\\HelpFile_9_3.chm" );where HelpFile_9_3 is in the same folder as my class, but it won't work. Can anyone help?
    Also, can you search within a chm file from Java? If I get that above code working, I presume it'll open the help file to the main page. I'd like to search within that document for a word or phrase - possible?
    Thanks!

  • How to call a help file from a WAD Template button

    Hi All
    I need to implement a button in a web template when I press the button it displays another HTML or text file it is mainly on help on the report.
    I am just wondering how to store this HTML or text file in the system and what function to implement in the web template button ti display this text or HTML when the button is pressed.
    Thanks
    Karen

    Hi Karen,
    Please try this out:
    With WAD 3.5 it's easy. You could use javascript function: window.open().
    window.open("/sap/bw/Mime/Customer/.../file.htm","NewWindow","width=750,height=700,left=100,top=100");
    Try using the SCRIPT Item in WAD 7.0. You can use the same code within the SCRIPT Item and call the function which has been defined in the Script Item, in the XHTML part of the Template.
    It may help.
    Or put the file in another web template and on click of a button, the new template opens up and displays the content of the file.
    Not sure though if the latter one would be useful, its just a thought.
    Hope it Helps,
    Regards,
    Amit

    Hopeless. Are you by any chance a rare gas? You seem completely inert. LOL You totally pwned him there :rolls eyes:
    well, no, I think he's looking for something to this degree:
    in HTML, there is a mailto: command that makes the system default handled way to email emails open up. He's looking for a command thats very nice and opens a html file in the system default browser.
    So, Dick, Runtime.exec would work execpt that he needs a way to find the default system browser to call exec on, AND he has to know how to pass html file locations to the executable via command line arguments
    He just didnt try to phrase it at all :P
