Subject:Context ID calling a Topic as a Popup From:John Melby <melbys -at- WINNIE -dot- FIT -dot- EDU> Date:Wed, 1 Nov 1995 16:05:50 -0500
Hello All,
The current project on which I am working calls for context sensitive
help for all fields in all dialogs. Of course, the manner in which 95
deals with this situation is to display a popup. Does anyone out in "Help
Land" know how to do this in 3.1 Help? I contacted Blue Sky and was told
that it can be done, but it involves the programmer calling the Topic as
a Popup - only they didn't inform me as to how the programmer does this
call. Anybody out there know how - or have an elegant solution?
Thanks in advance,
Michael Melby
