Problems with integrating help into my app.

I have the .lnk and .htm file installed on a PDA and if I
simply start the help and click on my Application name in
the list of help topics, this help file works great.
Then I load my application and tap on Start, Help.
Nothing happens whereas if I'm in Excel, and tap Start,
Help I get the Excel .htm help file.

Also, does anyone have some good links to explain how to
add the required help files: .htm and .lnk to my install
so that the files get deployed to the correct locations?
Thank you!

These links especially the blog one, look exactly like
the info I need.
Do you know how to incorporate .lnk and .htm in the Setup
to make it deploy correctly?

I'm using VS.Net 2003 and I followed the article from
MSDN titled "Developing and Deploying Pocket PC Setup
Applications". It's working great, until I needed to add
help to the application. I was thinking it would be as
simple as adding .lnk and .htm to my setup project, but
when I tried to add new file and point to .lnk it give me
an error: "Cannot resolve this link. This file may not
be a shortcut". So I can't even get it into the setup
file!
