Hi,

I just figured out how to create and link to a compiled html file (.chm).
The HelpProvider object uses the SetHelpString to set a pop-up text.
The examples I've come acros use a local string in stead of getting one from
an external source.

I know it's possible to include some strings in a .chm file and get them
from your application, to display as popup-help.

I just don't know how... so does anyone know how to do this?

How do I save my list of strings? (a .js or .html file in the .chm file ??)
Which object/method do I use to get the string in my application?
(I'm using in VB.net and C#)

I'd appreciate any help!

Bonna
