Call HTML Help file using Topic ID?

[LearnerVN]

The problem:

- I have a HTML help file (sample.chm) and I have to open it in several form

- In each form, when the user press F1, the program will bring up a help topic relating to that form

- I have Help ID for each topic, help ID represent as a 32 bit number

- I use HelpProvider control

 

HelpProvider has some method: SetHelpNavigator and SetHelpKeyword, but I don't see any method like SetHelpID so I can't make the program run as requirement...

 

I know that we can use VC++ to solve this problem as MFC provide function for this, but in this case I'm using C#

 

Any suggestion for the problem? Thanks in advance.

The only other .NET way to show help, that I'm aware of, is using the System.Windows.Forms.Help class. It has a few methods, including ShowHelp, which has 4 overloads. One of them might be of some use to you.

 

If not, you could always call the same APIs that MFC does.
