Hello,

I've a question about the helpsystem of dotnet 2.0. My situation :

I've two helpfiles (HelpFile.de.chm and HelpFile.en.chm). I want to
change these files at runtime. I call my helpfiles with the following
code :

Help.ShowHelp(control, Settings.Default.HELPFILE, HelpNavigator.Topic,
helpId.ToString());

Now my problem : I can't change the file at runtime. It's only
possible for one application instance to call one helpfile.

Is there a cache for helpfiles? Why isn't there a possibilty to change
the helpfiles at runtime?

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Patrick

Hi Patrick,

Thanks for your answer.

Unfortunately, I couldn't fix my problem. My helpfiles are called :
HelpFile.de.chm and HelpFile.en.chm.

When you have two same named helpfiles, then there will be this bug.

Is there no possibility to switch between two helpfiles at runtime?

Thanks a lot for your help.
