How are you linking your files?

Help Projects are based on relative file structures, so if you link your files from within the project folder structure the files end up in the help file. Anything outside of it will end up as an external link.

As a side note, you really don't want to screw around with Help Workshop - it's such a pain in the butt. Any third party tool - including my own Html Help Builder - will make your job a lot easier.

>I know this is a little off topic but don't know where else to turn. I have begun writing a HELP system for my app using ms Help Workshop. I have done this before but the program and methodology has changed. It now uses HTML to create the screens that are compiled into the *.chm file.

I either need to do something more to fold the pages into the CHM or include something more in the distribution.
