![]() Answer: Launching help is easy, just use the following command: helpOnEx(db, helpFile, index) where db is a dialog box or dbExplorer. helpFile is the name of the CHM file and index is the page number in the help file (zero gives contents). e.g: helpOnEx(dbExplorer, "c:/helpFiles/myHelp.chm", 0) You need to put this call in a dxl file so you can launch it from a menu. Suggest you search forums for examples of how to do this, but essentially you have two choices: The addins route. This is where you put your dxl files in addins folder and the menus are created automatically. See "The DXL Library and Addins menus" in the online help. Config folders. You write scripts here that create the menus. You will find an example here Creating Menus. | |

I have converted our own user manual into a chm-file.
Now I would like to add a menu item to open that file, only the dxl reference does not give a clue. Can anybody help? Thanks in advance. Karl |
