Hello all, For the past month or so we've been trying to get a straight answer from Blue-Sky concerning a bug in their software. This bug causes at least one common control function to return a wrong value. In a few words, if csh.lib is added to a Microsoft Visual C++ project which has a ComboBox control in it, calls to GetLBText() return only the first two characters of the text on Windows NT. I sent Blue-Sky a demonstration program (write me if you want the source code), and got the following reply: Eric Combes, Blue Sky Software Technical Support: > I am very sorry but because of the custom controls in your application > it looks like the WTHC tool won't work with your application. R&D > took a look at it but can't find a work around for your application. > You can still use RoboHELP to create the What's This help file but > your developers would be responsible for implementing the WinHelp API. > Rather then the WTHC being able to do it automatically. What I'd like to know is if anyone can figure out a simple workaround, or if anyone knows about a different product which can use or import the context sensitive help built by RoboHelp. Thanks in advance, Noam Ben-Yochanan noam@zsoft.com
