Hello,
I moved my existing package from VS .Net 2003 to VS.Net 2005.
Using the installshield installer I want to inetegrate the the help create
for my package with the help of Visual Studio .Net 2005.
I am using the new merge module VSIPCC for this purpose.
But the help inetgration is not successful, whereas the same would work very
well for Visual Studio .Net 2003.
Could you please help me with the above described problem

This may not be the best solution to your problem, but because we had issues
with help integration ourselves, we just decided to use a 3rd-party product
called H2REG. It's pretty cheap, and it makes help integration painless.

True, we are using this tool also. It seems there is no other
convenient way to make your help files work in VSIP.

Innovasys. check it out.
