Good morning !
I am using WIN XP SP2 and Office 2007.
In VBA, I want to show a particular item of Excel help, for example the item
relative to the help method.
A right click on the window of the help file, open on the method
"Application.help" gives the opportunity to copy the reference of the item :
HV10035867 . The command "display the source" brings up a message box "The
XML file cannot be seen". If I use in a sub
Application.Help , HV10035867 nothing happens. If I use Application.Help ,
10035867 the help file is opened but only on the first page.
What is the right syntax to get a particular item ?
Thanks
Aeronav
 
Thanks for your reply, it works now if I write
"Aplication.Assistance.ShowHelp "HV10093546", "DEV"
 
Bonjour,
I am always obliged to use the second argument "DEV", like
Application.Assistance.ShowHelp "HV10072384", "DEV" to go to a particular
topic,. If I use "" instead of "DEV" I go to the first page of the help
file.
But it is OK for me. Salutations

Hi Aeronav

I will add a note about the second argument on the page to make it complete.
