I am just evaluating your helpstudio 3 product and i like it alot.

I created a small project, and added a few topics with 'Help Context IDs' and then created a new build profile.

I unchecked 'compile a help file' as i want straight html and NOT a chm file.

I then load that help into an embedded browser control inside my c# windows form, which works nicely.

But is it possible to create a url string that will load a topic via a help context id?  This help will be installed on the local pc.

Thanks in advance for any help offered.

  Hello,

  To do this you can call webframe.html?topicname.html (where topicname is the Topic you want to display by default). This is how its done calling from a browser but this should be the same locally.

  I hope this helps.
