Question on HtmlHelp

P

Paul Werkowitz

Hello,

we use HtmlHelp for context sensitive Help, like this:

AfxGetApp()->HtmlHelpA( helpId, HH_HELP_CONTEXT );


Since we have very many help Ids it can happen that an Id is not mapped in
the help file. HtmlHelp then shows an error box.

What I want is that it shows the start page of the help system.

Now, can I

- ask the chm-file whether a certain helpId is mapped? Then I can avoid an
errorneus call of HtmlHelp by code.

- specify a fallback help page somehow?

Wrong group, try asking on "microsoft.public.vc.mfc"
