Subject:IDH Help Query From:Lesley-Anne Nelson <Moshe -at- MERIDIANNI -dot- CO -dot- UK> Date:Thu, 7 Jan 1999 13:44:21 -0000
Quick query I have been reading up a little about this help for Dialog Boxes. I have come across IDH_ that apparently has to be used as the first four characters of a Topic. At the minute within my Help file I have the topic set as IDD_SYSTEM_FORMAT. This doesn't work for me so I am assuming that i have to do something with the IDH_ Beginning. Do I add this to the front of my topic or do I substitute IDD for IDH. I am not quite sure what the reasoning is for this but I do know I am really stuck. Does someone have any idea what I'm going on about. I would appreciate any help.
