Displaying help from an openDCL dialog

Hi,
I'm newish, and am currently just looking through the openDCL documentation rather than actually using it!
I was wondering if there is any mechanism for writing/displaying help to be displayed from an openDCL eg is there an html control?  Is this the best way to display help?  Can you recommend any other method?

Thanks,
Hugh

There are many ways to show help in a form.

Within the form

• using tooltips


• setting caption to a label control in an information area when moving the mouse over a control


• using html control

Outside the form

• calling another (modeless) form with a html control in showing a html document


• calling (help "MyHelp.chm" "ThisCommandHelpFile") when pressing a button


• triggering OnHelp-Event of the form when pressing Help in a child MessageBox


• calling a website when pressing a button (like Adobe products do it)


• Press F1. That will work if you've called (setfunhelp "c:ThisCommand" "MyHelp.chm" "ThisCommandHelpFileChapter") while loading your app.

There is no best way - it depends on your app and the situations. Often different ways can be used together side-by-side.
