.NET Forum / Windows Forms / WinForm General / March 20086 years later - bugfix neither found its way into 2.0 or 2.0SP1
Hello, look at this: http://groups.google.de/group/microsoft.public.helpauthoring/browse_thread/threa d/f58899a5b10440df/6f2b59a8609a7d74?lnk=st&q=HelpNavigator+AssociateIndex The solution is also known since ages: http://www.help-info.de/en/Visual_Basic_net/vbnet_faq.htm But what does Microsoft? Describes the bugs resulting misbehavior being the "right" behavior: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.helpnavigator.aspx Quote: "The Help file opens to the index entry for the first letter of a specified topic." And I thought the following was just a joke: Q: How many Microsoft Programmers does it take to change a light bulb? A: None. They declare darkness the standard.  Signature/\/\arkus. Maybe the fact that the help system has been replaced by something else and that this is all totally obselete might have some bearing on the matter. I don't know for sure but I don't think Ford are still interested in improving the Model-T.

Replaced by what? Nothing? Bingo! (Or just tell me there is any outofthebox help-system with WPF, I'm listening.) Which end-user help system is used by applications on vista? Something different than chm-help? WinHelp died, but not HtmlHelp -- and the VS document-explorer help is only intended for development environments. Signature/\/\arkus. This may be of some use to you: http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/HA011362731033.aspx There are several reasonably cheap options for commercial programs that do the job in a more or less RAD fashion.

Now you give me a link to Html/CHM-Help and that exactly is what is not working correctly with .NET. You can enter an endless loop by just starting reading my root message. Signature/\/\arkus.
