I have been trying to add help to an application, using the 1.2 Help Manager, but with not much success - the Help system pops up from the system menu, but not from anywhere else. I have the OS/2 Programmer's Reference Guides, Vols 1-4, and the 1.2 Softset, so I have the IPFC, but no written documentation or Quick Help for the IPFC input language - I have obtained all help from HELPDEMO, an example IPF file, which includes the syntax of all the IPFC tags. The documentation for the HELP resources for the resource compiler is also very limited - 4 pages in quickhelp, and not too many more in the manual. (Why, why, why did MS not include any documentation for the IPFC, or any sample programs in the Softset/Reference Guides?) It seems that my main problem is in the HELP resources that I need to add to my program: could someone please send me source for an example application that uses the Help Manager? -- Conrad Bullock, Domain: conrad@cavebbs.gen.nz The Cave MegaBBS, BBS Ph: + 64 4 643-429 Wellington, New Zealand.
