Add/Display a (*.chm) help File in VC++ 6.0 MFC Application

[Thisara]

I wish to display a help file (*.chm) in a VC++ 6.0 MFC Application .
I've created the CHM file using a software and I just want to display the
chm file when the Help button is clicked.

It's better if u can give a sample code.

Your help is highly appreciated.


Thanks in Advance

Check the docs for ShellExecute() using the file name and the "open verb"

ShellExecute(hWnd, _T("open"), _T("C:\\MyDir\\MyFile.chm"),
NULL, NULL, SW_SHOWNORMAL);
