Subject:Customization of a WinHelp file by a user From:Diane Heald <heald -at- IAG -dot- NET> Date:Thu, 12 Dec 1996 14:05:01 -0500
I create WinHelp files. My users at several different companies want to be
able to customize the Winhelp file. What is the best way to do this? The
annotations don't seem to stay once the help file is recompiled.
There is a File, Open command on the help window, but it only seems to
allow you to open a help file, not just an ordinary document.
The user wants to be able to call their customized info from the help
window and the user wants to create the custom stuff themselves. They do
not have the capability of creating a help file.
